Custom CA Certificate on Chromium

[felipemiranda]

Hello guys, I am new to Freebsd, I am trying to use a custom CA Certificate of my home lab on Chromiun. I have already add it to the system and when I use curl/wget/openssl it validates the certificates, but in Chromium it doesn't, could you guys point me to a solution? I tried to go to Settings -> Privacy and security -> Security -> Manage certificates but I got this error:

```
This site can’t be reached
The webpage at chrome://certificate-manager/ might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new web address.
ERR_FAILED
```

Me too!

Recently installed chrome on my laptop, just noted it cannot access my intranet homepage and wanted to add my own site CA.
Got the same error as You.

There's a bunch of possible "causes and solutions" google KI spits out when querying the error message (no URL to reference such stuff ), anyway, none has helped.

But, I have chrome on the desktop, for quite a while, and there my site CA is already included (once upon a time it seems to have worked nicely, one way or the other). So, I just had to figure what the respective file is in the user's $HOME, and then copy it to the laptop.

Searching for "chrome file location of cert", google KI spits out a location on Linux: ~/.pki/*
Copying the files in there (nssdb/key*.* and nssdb/cert*.*) indeed solved the matter for me.

So if you have your certs already configured into chrome on some machine, you could go that same way.
Otherwise, these key*.* and cert*.* files appear to be some standard DB files, and it should be possible to edit them with the proper tools, independent of chrome.

Update:
This here seems to work https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Network_Security_Services - command certutil does exist.
