Hi All

I have been using WebServicesCore framework to perform web service operations 
with SSL enabled server/client communications.

I have read various mailing lists and came to know that a Server certificate 
must be installed in the client machine inorder to make the WebserviceCore work.

So far I have tried with an approach where I have created a self assigned 
certificate and used for authontication, but WebServicesCore pops up the error 
code: errSSLUnknownRootCert            = -9812,        /* valid cert chain, 
untrusted root */

One more approach, here I downloaded the server certificate(from target 
printer) using the Safari application to client keychain and this too pops up 
an error: errSSLHostNameMismatch          = -9843,        /* peer host name 
mismatch */
This means, the Common Name field in the certificate doesn't  match the 
hostname of the system the certificate will be used on aacording to link: 
http://sial.org/howto/openssl/self-signed/#s3

Why is this error? I have verified the certificate (using "openssl verify" 
tool) and its valid. Why frameworks puts up this error.
 
Is the WebServicesCore framework gives provision to use the self assigned 
certificates or expired certificates just like Security framework? 
Is there any way to disable validation of the certificates?Or is there any 
other solution available?

Any help greatly appreciated.

With Regards
Lokesh
