FML!!!

Nessus SSL authentication through Kali Linux is next to impossible. I generated certificates through terminal and I still get error "SSL received a record that exceeded the maximum permissable length" (in Iceweasel).

Tried importing certs into separate Firefox browser and now just SSL handshake errors.

    Setting up for pen testing with VMWare. Will keep reading Nessus troubleshooting I suppose!

    Why not buy a real certificate?

    Didn't occur to me as the set up instructions suggested I can generate certs on my own... I surely hope my frustration leads to more understanding at the least. Thank you nonetheless.

    Did you import the CA too?
    Browsers are very finicky with self signed certs nowadays, adding to the SSL hell.
    Let's encrypt is an option though.
