When managing certificates in Google Chrome settings->certificate manager->my certificates tab says:
You have certificates from these organizations it also wants me to import a certificate. It opens my home directory when I hit import button and it displays my home directory.
From seahores in ubuntu it says mymailaddress@gmail.com is a personal PGP key under the GNUPG keys section. When i use seahorse to export it I get an xxxxx.asc file and inside it is a private key when opening it with an editor.
What do you think the Chrome browser settings is looking for me to import into it's certificates tab?

It is looking for a PKCS#12 File
From Wikipedia:
In cryptography, PKCS #12 defines an archive file format for storing
many cryptography objects as a single file. It is commonly used to
bundle a private key with its X.509 certificate or to bundle all the
members of a chain of trust.
I am guessing you will be importing your private and public keys, for authentication. In a private computing environment that would just be public and private keys for the user of the system.
If you wanted to you could also set up a CA (Certificate Authority) that is set up in a server environment, or use AD or LDAP, or a mail server which needed specific certificates to access them [the specific certificates].
You could actually grab a certificate off of the network, or transfer certificates to your machine, then import them into chrome, and you could access things which require those certificates.
@stevenhendo34 it looks like your certificate is in a hidden folder. If you are using nautilus pressCtrl + h
to view hidden files and folders. From the command line (terminal) you can view the hidden files/folders withls -a
. Or since you have the path inside the details. The files should be in ~/.pki/nssdb/ hope that helps a bit

then
Note: StartCom/StartSLL was were I got my free cert for my website on a cloud-computer. This is the one they gave me so I can Authenticate and then use the tools on their site. Oddly I can use their site fine without importing this into Chrome.
I don't know where to find this on my system or what the filename or filename extension would be. If I did want to import it to Chrome.
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction--feel free to help more if you wish.
I am going to have to figure it out so I can back it up and save a copy off my hard drive encase of crash :(
