How to use Mac Mini as an APNS server for Push Notifications

I have looked for it everywhere, I can't find any clue where to start or how to do it.

I have an Apple Mac Mini with OSX Server that I would like to use as an APNS server to send push notifications for my iPhone application. I'm currently using my Macbook for the sandbox gateway through terminal running a php script.

What I did/have:

• Generated development/production certificates.


• pem/p12 files.


• PHP Script for sending.

If it can't be done on a Mac Mini Server. How would I pull it off from shared hosting or dedicated server? Thanks!
