That looks like an LDAP question - i.e. not something that Mono.Security
does (e.g. replace "server certificate" by "string" and the main
question remains without involving mscorlib.dll ;-)

Mono.Security can deal with them (certs and private keys) but won't pull
or push them to LDAP servers.

Parts of Mono.Security.dll are documented (under "Mono Libraries") in
http://www.go-mono.com/docs/

Otherwise you have the "absolute documentation" in the source code of
both the assembly and the tools that it. More than 90% of the code
exists because it was needed somewhere (mostly the security tools, a bit
of the BCL too). Be warned that most of the code are low-level API
(compared to the framework).
