Cheers, Gene Heskett
the nut client ( upsc ) is trying to use the NSS-based SSL backend of
your OS (in order to avoid sending passwords in clear text to the
UPS) but the backend is not initialized yet. look for the docs
appropriate for your distro in order to find out how to create the
database used by NSS
Sorry wolfy, but NSS is not an acronym I am familiar with.
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Projects/NSS
in short, it is one set of the libraries providing security-enabled
access to the user-facing applications . and it has become pretty
popular and widely adopted in the last 5 years or so.
This I assume is new feature in stretch? It wasn't a problem for wheezy.
I am not a debian user so I am less familiar with the lifetime of
packages over there but no, it is not a new feature in stretch. Pease
see https://launchpad.net/debian/wheezy/+source/nss
As to your actual problem, I suspect you need to look at certutil ,
maybe something along
certutil -N -d dbm:NSS_db --empty-password // -N here stands for
"New" database
Please read the docs and verify all the above prior to attempting to
use, especially as stretch might prefer sql instead of dbm
