Hi Oliver,
Some comments below. Please fill a bug report into bugzilla.ximian.com.

Are you using client-side certificates ? or only server-side ?
If you're using client-side (like your code seems to) then why do you need a
username/password ?

You probably get a stack trace with an exception ?
Could you add this in your bug report.

You only have to supply a certificate for client-side SSL authentication.
If this is the case then the code is incomplete for Mono - as Mono has no
way to "detect" the private key associated with the certificate.
