    WLAN: Installation of certificate - No access to /etc/ssl/certs

    Hey guys,

    I just tried to install the WLAN certificate of my university. According to the manual for Linux operating systems, I have to put the cert-file into the folder "/etc/ssl/certs". Unfortunately, I can't do this, even with root privileges (devel-su). I also have Inception installed, but I wonder how to move the cert-file into the folder using Inception?

    Thanks in advance for your help!

    Use terminal to copy it over; for example the name of the cert you want to copy over is XYZ and its currently residing in ~/MyDocs, do the following in terminal:

    Code:
    devel-su
    {enter your passwrd}
    cp -R /home/user/MyDocs/XYZ /etc/ssl/certs/

    Thanks for your reply, but unfortunately this method doesn't work, as I've already mentioned in my first post. The terminal tells me "permission denied". Is there any way to get this certificate into this folder? I thought that using inception I would have total control over my device..? But what does the inception command look like?

    are you sure you used the -R operator in the cp command?

    Alternatively you can use ariadnesh or opensh shell to so the command since you already have inception up...
