I'm trying to install a new root CA - I've placed it in /etc/ssl/certs, and done the rehash. Testing openssl s_client works, but firefox doesn't seem to recognise it. Does firefox not look in /etc/ssl/certs or do I need a magic wand?
Hi Per,
FF is fussy. You can clear cache ("recent browsing history") or go to 'Edit -> Preferences -> Advanced -> Encryption -> View Certificates' to manage what it's stored.

Hi Carl, I've already been through FF restart and a complete system ditto (just to be on the safe side). I don't see the certificate under "View Certificates", but how do I get it in there (system wide, not for a single user)? It seems to me that having installed it in /etc/ssl/certs should be enough?
As far as I know Firefox ships with its own list of trusted authorities. Throwback from MS days where Windows has its own store. No idea where they are stored.
They're all in /usr/share/ca-certificates/mozilla and /etc/ssl/certs has symlinks to those. I've also tried adding my root certificate into /usr/share/ca-certificates/mozilla, also to no avail.
When you import one, does it only work for that one user and not system wide?
Yep. (it wouldn't be right for a regular user to have access to system-wide settings) -- Per Jessen, Zürich (12.8°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
