So we run VMware, and this morning I go and check a thing, and Firefox gives me an error… connection insecure cert is invalid

No I don’t have the exact verbiage

But Edge and Chrome opened it just fine. Whisky Tango?

It was a rekeyed , and re installed the cert for an easy ish fix.

But I’m far more weirded out that FF slapped it down ; and the other two were like; Ja sure no problem…

??

Maybe should x post to c/firefox as well

    It’s kind of wild you’d make a post on a sysadmin community of all places and place a post that sounds exactly like what a clueless end user would make. Zero details, no error, just “It’s broken I don’t know why and I have zero relevant information.”

      As a beginner trying to learn programming; I thought you might think first and type later.

      — I was pointing out. That::

      1. it is a certificate issue

      2. Firefox breaks but Edge doesn’t.

      3. even after I solved the issue, by redoing the certificate; I thought it my be of interest in saving someone else the bother.

        You might want to check that attitude. If you can’t post basic details then maybe you shouldn’t be in IT. I’ve seen bad upper level support.

          Your attitude is completely unacceptable. Someone is asking for help, and asking them to provide more specific information is reasonable, but telling them to quit is not.

          When we hire for our work, we will take a green candidate with people skills over an experienced candidate who is derisive of those who know less than they do. You can teach IT skills a lot easier than you can teach people skills.

            Good for you. I don’t really care what some moron on the Internet thinks. He didn’t provide any details about the problem. I came in here with a somewhat light hearted attempt at pointing it out and now I’m getting attacked for it. You people really need to learn how to be humble.

            And his jab at me wasn’t acceptable either. Why aren’t you calling them out on it?
