20.1 Legacy Series / Self-signed CA -> Certificate - Firefox error
« on: February 08, 2020, 11:53:12 am »
Hi
I tried to create a CA from OPNsense and afterwards a website certificate from that CA.
I assigned it to the web interface of my OPNsense firewall.
But Firefox doesn't like the CA/certificate created stating an error like this
SEC_ERROR_INADEQUATE_CERT_TYPE
I imported the CA into Firefox certificate store without any difference.
If I choose not to trust it for websites within Firefox I can access the web interface again.
Some searching show that, "I confirmed this by generating a new test CA with the the extended usage field excluded, then generating a new SSL Cert The certificate verifies properly now."
Have some of you a workaround or fix?
Thanks
