How to create TLS Certificate and deploy in APNS server - xcode

As per apple latest news "Providers using only SSL 3.0 will need to support TLS as soon as possible to ensure the Apple Push Notification service continues to perform as expected."
I have created a TLS certificate and deployed in the server but getting issue when trying to send push from the server.
I have followed the below link to create the TLS certificate.
https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/technotes/tn2326/_index.html
If anyone created TLS file and deployed in the server please reply my post.
Thanks in advance

Enable Developer Signing Fails Server request MacOS

I have an app that calls API request from the server that works perfectly before adding developer signing Cert.
After enabling the Developer Signing, i always get failure server request
finished with error - code: -1003
any idea why i get this?
Thanks you in advance
I already know why i get the issue. My App request from server and it is sandboxed. I need to enable the Outgoing Connections insdie the Capabilities>App Sandbox to successfully request from server
As per apple docs Like here
you need the Outbound Connection capability because the app is
initiating the connection. An app acting as a server would require the
Inbound Connection entitlement.

How does Parse Server determine what APNS push certificate to use?

How does Parse Server internally decide on which APNS push certificate to use? (development vs production)
The server uses the apn node module and will try every certificates to issue your notification in order.

Docusign connect, need to buy SSL certificate?

For all docusign developers outthere. I'm using Docusign Connect to check the status of the envelop. I develop a listener that runs on tomcat. The reason why I used this because it's easier to code on my perspective and I want a push type data notification.
It works fine with HTTP, but I spend 2 days now and I still can't get it work for HTTPS.
My question is since the self signed certificate is not working. Do I need to purchase an SSL certificate for my web server?
or Docusign has a work around on this?
On demo sandboxes you can get away with testing without using HTTPS.
On production you will need a server that will actually support error free SSL connections. This means that you will need to wire up your tomcat to use some certificate that validates your website address. Whether it's a new one or just a wild card that you already have - that depends on the situation.

What security concerns can occur if I share APNS certificate and key with others?

I have an app that uses APNS and a server that uses SSL certificates generated by Apple member portal.
Both the app and the server are open source, and people using this solution install the server and the app in their own machines. There is no "central" server.
For others to use push notifications, they need SSL certificates that I have. What are the security implications if I share my SSL certificates (private and public) for APNS push with others?

Authenticating a web service for use with push notifications

For our Mango app we have enabled push notifications. But it is unauthorized. In order to have authenticated web service, we need to create and install the required certificate. We are using Tomcat as a web server. Which SSL certificate do we need to create and install and how to do that?
Did you have a look at Setting Up an Authenticated Web Service to Send Push Notifications for Windows Phone in MSDN? It tells you where to put your certificate and what to do next. This article contains some information about how to get a certificate. And the folks at Server Fault are probably the best source to ask about installing it on your server.
