Hi @Kevin_Logan and @ylasri,

When I was setting up the `elastic-agent` I got a trust error related to the certificate. After some research I was able to resolve that issue by adding the `CA` cert to `/etc/ssl/certs/`, then I was able to setup the `elastic-agent`, but for some reason the `elastic-endpoint` did not the same. Now, after reading this [thread](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/missing-elastic-security-and-endpoint-integration-data/246601/15), I added the same `CA` cert to `/usr/local/share/ca-certificates/`, Then restarted the `elastic-agent`, although I have to say that restating the `elastic-agent` does not seems to restart the `elastic-endpoint` process. Even with the `agent` service stopped, the `endpoint` process keeps running.

Am I missing steps?
