Add permanent SSL certificate exception in Chrome (Linux)

Add permanent SSL certificate exception in Chrome (Linux)

I have a problem with a website that has an SSL certificate which doesn't correspond to the website domain. Chrome gives me a warning for this website (and rightly so), which I have to ignore manually. Every time I restart Chrome, I need to ignore the certificate issue again.

"This is a summary of the answers from the thread
Disable Google Chrome warning if security certificate is not trusted.

You can avoid the message for trusted sites by installing the certificate.
This can be done by clicking on the warning icon in the address bar, then click
Certificate Information -> Details Tab -> Export...
Save the certificate.

Use Chrome's Preferences -> Under The Hood -> Manage Certificates -> Import.
On the ""Certificate Store"" screen of the
import, choose ""Place all certificates
in the following store"" and browse for
""Trusted Root Certification
Authorities."" Restart Chrome."

"The only way I got it working in Chromium with Ubuntu Linux is using this certutil commandline:

certutil -d sql:$HOME/.pki/nssdb -A -t ""CP,CP,"" -n CertNickName -i cert_file.crt"
