I Want to update ssl certificates on my iMac G4, macOS Tiger (10.4.11). I already tried to copy from a newer mac the certificate "Actalis Authentication Root CA", trust in in Keychain Access but when with safari i go on the website "alternativalinux.it" i recive the error "Safari cannot enstabilish a safe connection with alternativalinux.com".

    Certificates are going to be only the first of your issues - next will come your SSL & TLS being incompatible with modern sites. I think Mavericks 10.9 is about the oldest OS that can deal with modern sites using TLS 1.2.

    Not sure whether the answers to apple.stackexchange.com/questions/47122/… are still valid, but worth trying.

  • alternativalinux.com is a non-active website, I can't securely connect with any browser. Do you have the problem only with that site, or also with others?

According to https://observatory.mozilla.org/analyze/www.alternativalinux.it#tls, the site requires TLS 1.2 and Safari 5. I didn‘t find a technical documentation for Safari 4 but assume that it doesn‘t support TLS 1.2. TLS 1.2 needs code to handle it, a simple certificate update will not help here.

So you can‘t use Safari 4 any longer to connect to modern web pages.
