You don't need BSAFE at all. The BSAFE glue was used prior to the expiration of the RSA patent. Now, libfreebl contains all the crypto functions needed by NSS, and the BSAFE glue is just there for folks that already have BSAFE licenses and want to keep on using BSAFE. > AtDhVaAnNkCsE > Jeff > > PS: If this is documented somewhere, could I please get a reference.

NSS 3.0's docs discussed it. 3.1 was the first release of NSS that didn't need it. -- Nelson Bolyard Disclaimer: I speak for myself, not for Netscape
