Nix Setup for MacOS + ZScaler

These are my personal notes for estting up Nix with ZScaler.

Export certs as cert bundle

ZScaler eavesdrops on all communication, which is indistinguishable from a MITM attack.

Trust the cert in the KeyChain cert store. Then export the bundle to /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt:

Installing tmux-256color for macOS

• macOS 10.15.5
• tmux 3.1b

macOS has ncurses version 5.7 which does not ship the terminfo description for tmux. There're two ways that can help you to solve this problem.

The Fast Blazing Solution

Instead of tmux-256color, use screen-256color which comes with system. Place this command into ~/.tmux.conf or ~/.config/tmux/tmux.conf(for version 3.1 and later):
