Trusting Your Start9 CA on Linux
================================
Here we will insert your Start9 server's CA certificate into Linux's trust store to ensure that applications will trust your Start9 server's services.
.. tabs::
.. group-tab:: Debian/Ubuntu
These instructions should work for Debian, Ubuntu, or any Debian or Ubuntu-based Linux, such as Linux Mint, PopOS, etc.
Perform the following commands in the Terminal:
.. code-block:: bash
sudo apt install -y ca-certificates p11-kit
.. note:: For each Mozilla-based application you plan on using, in order for them to trust your Start9 server's CA certificate directly from your Linux distribution's certificate trust store, execute the following command(s):
If you use Firefox:
.. code-block:: bash
libnssckbiso=/usr/lib/firefox/libnssckbi.so && sudo mv $libnssckbiso $libnssckbiso.bak && sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkcs11/p11-kit-trust.so $libnssckbiso
If you use Firefox ESR:
.. code-block:: bash
libnssckbiso=/usr/lib/firefox-esr/libnssckbi.so && sudo mv $libnssckbiso $libnssckbiso.bak && sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkcs11/p11-kit-trust.so $libnssckbiso
If you use Librewolf:
.. code-block:: bash
libnssckbiso=/usr/share/librewolf/libnssckbi.so && sudo mv $libnssckbiso $libnssckbiso.bak && sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkcs11/p11-kit-trust.so $libnssckbiso
If you use Thunderbird (Useful for LAN access to NextCloud's calendar/contacts):
.. code-block:: bash
libnssckbiso=/usr/lib/thunderbird/libnssckbi.so && sudo mv $libnssckbiso $libnssckbiso.bak && sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkcs11/p11-kit-trust.so $libnssckbiso
If you performed any of the commands above, now we need to move the the mozilla apps' old trust store out of the way so the next time it starts it will use the system trust store:
.. code-block:: bash
mv ~/.pki ~/.pki.mozilla-old
Finally, we will change directory to the folder where you downloaded your Start9 server's Root CA (usually `~/Downloads`), and run the following commands to add your Start9 server's CA certificate to the OS trust store:
.. code-block:: bash
cd ~/Downloads
sudo cp "<custom-address>.crt" /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/
sudo update-ca-certificates
In the output it should say ``1 added`` if it was successful.
.. group-tab:: Arch/Garuda
From the folder you have downloaded your Start9 server's Root CA, run the following commands (if you have changed the certificate's filename, be sure to change it here):
.. code-block:: bash
sudo pacman -S ca-certificates
sudo cp "<custom-address>.crt" /etc/ca-certificates/trust-source/anchors/
sudo update-ca-trust
Despite no output from the last command, you can test your app right away.
.. group-tab:: CentOS/Fedora
First, ensure mDNS resolution is turned on so you can reach your server:
Ensure ``MulticastDNS=Yes`` is set in /etc/systemd/resolved.conf and then restart systemd-resolved:
.. code-block:: bash
sudo systemctl restart systemd-resolved
Trust your server's CA certificate:
From the folder you have downloaded your Start9 server's Root CA, run the following commands (if you have changed the certificate's filename, be sure to change it here):
.. code-block:: bash
sudo yum install ca-certificates
sudo cp "<custom-address>.crt" /etc/pki/ca-trust/source/anchors/
sudo update-ca-trust
