SSH tunnels don't need certificates in themselves - at least, I don't have any for the ones I use.
What's the setup you have (where is the HA instance hosted, how are you trying to access it, and where from)?
NotThamesWater-
Home Assistant is on my home network on a raspberry pi.
At home I access it on the local network, remotely I can access it through SSH tunnel port forwarding. Both are fine but only through http, not https.
There are some integrations (Alexa and Samsung off the top of my head) that require an external, secure connection to Home Assistant to work which I don't think I have at the moment.

Not sure of the right thread for this but I guess it is network related.
I've got shh tunnelling with a VPS to my network working fine but I'd like to get some of the connections (particularly home assistant) working with a secure connection.
I tried adding a certificate to the VPS but that doesn't work as it is expecting a certificate from the endpoint and tells me that the certificates aren't matching. Do I just need to copy the same certificate into home assistant or should I create a new certificate for home assistant (and if so for what domain) or something else?
I can't imagine I'm the only one with this issue but I don't think I know the right terminology to search for a solution. Cheers
