Hi everyone, I'm currently in the process of enhancing my NextCloud instance with client certificate authentication and I'm struggling with the DAVx5 setup. Using the provider specific (NextCloud) ...
This may be more of an Android issue than self-hosting, but i run Radicale on my personal server to host caldav/carddav services. I want to login with uname&pword with a certificate. I found this video in Davx5 github page showing that a user can select the cert:
I generated a self-signed cert from my server and installed that to my Android phone via Settings > Security&Privacy > Encryption&Credentials. But i dont get the same as the video. It keeps telling me No certificate found
Clicking the install button and selecting my cert will say
Install CA certificates in Settings
This certificate from null must be installed in Settings. Only install CA certificates from organizations you trust.
Do you install the CA certificate or the client certificate? Because both aren’t the same. The app needs to authenticate with a client certificate file. The server has a server certificate that is checked against the CA certificate. So you’d install that (CA) in the android system certificate store and additionally give a client certificate file to the app.

Oh i thought they are the same. I look into how to create a self-signed CA and see if it helps
