Issue in page Configuring Firefox to Respect Your Root CA

Open TimothyShimmin opened this issue 8 months ago • 1 comments

I would like to report an issue in page https://docs.start9.com/0.3.5.x/misc-guides/ca-ff

Problem

When using The Tor Browser, using the same steps as FF on Ubuntu, I'm getting the error "Unable to add module" when loading the certificate. My copy of The Tor Browser is not an appimage, flatpak, or snap according to ChatGPT.

Suggest a fix

Include solution for configuring Root CA for The Tor Browser.

Perhaps this is the recommended solution, instead of The Tor Browser? If so, mention it on that page.

TorBrowser will not allow importing a manually trusted CA or point to an external (such as the OS's) trust store for security reasons.
