Agree with James - Roger you may need to drill a few certs in to the "chain of 
trust" to get to the root CA he mentions... CCK2 is my preferred method for 
certificate additions as well. For me a team in charge of this particular proxy 
device provided me the required cert(s).

BTW - the next ESR (52 March 7th 2017) will contain support for the built-in 
Windows certificate stores!

Encouraging or replacing with Chrome is another idea too... But we have users 
with a Firefox preference (myself included currently).

Sounds like you need to install the root CA certificate for whatever appliance 
is doing the SSL inspection - as all https sites probably now appear as being 
signed by whatever the SSL inspection appliance 'authority' is ...

We have to do this (using CCK2) for the appliance that we have to use to access 
the Internet

Subject: [Mozilla Enterprise] FireFox not working for HTTPS sites
We've had FireFox deployed in our Enterprise for quite a number of years now, 
however recently our security team has deployed some new feature functionality 
to confirm that all SSL packets don't contain certain types of information, 
they are effectively doing a man in the middle attack on all outgoing and 
incoming SSL packets.

This has resulted in almost every HTTPS site - such as google - throwing 
invalid certificate errors.

I've tried to import our domain certificate into FireFox using CCK2 - and it 
appears to be in there as when I've manually done an import I get an error that 
it is already present.  But we still continue to get error messages when 
visiting these sites.

I am resisting pressure from my management team to do a mass uninstall of 
FireFox and just switch to Chrome, but with each failure to implement a work 
around, it gets harder and harder to do so.

Does anyone know of a solution that I can implement that will work with 
pre-existing profiles for 3000+ PCs.

Thanks.
