Is there any fixed or known location for storing certificates in Linux, something like the Windows certificate store?
Thanks.
Yes, for system certificates, use
/etc/ssl/certs
AND
/etc/ssl/private (chmod 700)
For user SSH keys use the user's home folder, in a hidden folder named .ssh.
/home/user/.ssh
OR
~/.ssh
For webservers like apache, you can override the default location of certificates found in httpd.conf.
