Executing your script leaves me with the error message:

certutil: could not obtain certificate from file: Unrecognized Object Identifier.

Do you know what the problem is?

I’m frustrated by how some browsers work wonderfully for some programs but give you trouble for others. Can’t there be one great browser that is perfect for everything???

I get the same as above on FC 13. I have tried a variety of scrips and utilities with no luck.

Chrome sucks on this. Why can’t they just have a list of trusted sites / IPs?

In order Chrome to recognise your site as trusted one you should import self-signed server’s cert to Trusted Root CA in cert manager in Chrome as well and not forget to restart Chrome browser and direct it to your site again.

Cannot get this to work in Chrome on ubuntu 10.10. The script runs fine, produces the key file, but after adding it to the “server” section of the certificate manager for Chrome, I still get the not-trusted message.

You, sir, are a genius.

It worked great for my FreeNAS server. I had my self-signed certificate working OK in Windows, but was I stymied after many Linux attempts.

My client computer runs Chromium browser with a minimal Arch Linux OS. I could not use the import facility provided by Chromium. Probably rightly so, since it rejects my certificate as not from trusted authority.

Many thanks!
