#Ubuntu - Adding CA Certs

To add new Certificate Authority (CA) certs:

  1. Create a directory (ie extra) in the ca-certs to hold the new certs

    sudo mkdir /usr/share/ca-certificates/extra

  2. Copy or move the certs into the new directory

    sudo cp *.crt /usr/share/ca-certiciates/extra

  3. Tell ubuntu to add this directory to the certs list

    sudo dpkg-reconfigure ca-certificates

Step 2 has a typo. It should read: sudo cp *.crt /usr/share/ca-certificates/extra

A non-interactive way to update the CA Cert:

sudo cp *crt  /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/
sudo update-ca-certificates
