UPDATE-CA-CERTIFICATES(8) System Manager's Manual UPDATE-CA-CERTIFICATES(8) NAME
update-ca-certificates - update system CA certificates SYNOPSIS
update-ca-certificates [options] DESCRIPTION
update-ca-certificates updates the directory /etc/ssl/certs to hold SSL certificates and generates /etc/ssl/ca-bundle.pem, a concatenated single-file list of certificates. It reads the file /etc/ca-certificates.conf. Each line gives a pathname of a CA certificate under /usr/share/ca-certificates that should be trusted. Lines that begin with "#" are comment lines and thus ignored. Lines that begin with "!" are deselected, causing the deactivation of the CA certificate in question. All certificates are implicitly trusted if no trusted certificates are listed. Furthermore all certificates found below /usr/local/share/ca-certificates are also included as implicitly trusted. After populating /etc/ssl/certs update-ca-certificates invokes custom hooks in /usr/lib/ca-certificates/update.d/*.run and /etc/ca-certifi- cates/update.d/*.run. The command line options used for invoking update-ca-certificates are passed to the hooks as well. OPTIONS
A summary of options is included below. -h, --help Show summary of options. -v, --verbose Be verbose. Output c_rehash. -f, --fresh Fresh updates. Removes symlinks in /etc/ssl/certs directory and re-creates them from scratch. FILES
