trust a vcenter 6.0 certificate

[vmb01]

Hi

I'm doing some tests around vcenter certificates.

On my VCSA 6.0 I see that there's a certificate issued by CA.

Downloading the trusted root CA certificate and importing it on the store of my win PC I see that the vcenter certificate is trusted by IE and Chrome.

So my PC is trusting the CA that issued the vcenter certificate and obiouvsly it trusts the certificate.

On another PC I wish to trust the vcenter certificate, not the CA, so I'm importing the certificate downloded form vcenter into the windowsTRUSTED PEOPLE store using certmgr.

Now I.E. is  trusting the certificate but not Chrome.

What I'm what am I doing wrong?

Hi vmb01,

If you download the Trusted root CA certificate from the vCenter URL you should trust the vCSA as the VCSA's certificate was issued by a CA (VCSA CA service if I am not mistaken).

So, why do you don't install the root CA in that PC?
