"certificate has unknown CA"

Hi All,

I'm trying to connect to https://s3.ki.se, which uses StorageGRID, in order to create a special remote with git annex. I can't get past the following error. I also posted about this on the git annex forum and they suggested installing self-signed certificates, though I didn't have much look with that. Perhaps I didn't install correctly. Any advice? https://git-annex.branchable.com/forum/Disable_ssl_verification__63__/?updated#comment-5fa20d6d449626a83113d9060e45f038

jbwexler$ git annex initremote snd-2020-51-in-progress type=S3 encryption=none public=yes host=s3.ki.se bucket=snd-2020-51-in-progress protocol=https requeststyle=path

If you have an internal or external CA that you want to create and sign a certificate with, there is a detailed process here: https://github.com/NetApp-StorageGRID/SSL-Certificate-Configuration

This process walks you through creating the certificate request (CSR) and signing the certificate with an internal Microsoft CA.

Hope this helps.
