a minor nit-pick with certutil
Hi, *-W* option(to change password of the key database) is not listed when we do a certutil -H. But the functionality do work fine, if we try to change an existing password of the nss key database by using *certutil -W -d /home/user/.mozilla/firefox/xx.default/* I observed this on version -> nss-tools-3.12.2.0-5.fc10.i386 I have not checked with the latest nss-tools package. --kashyap -- dev-tech-crypto mailing list dev-tech-crypto@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-tech-crypto

If it is an option for you to use custom-built NSS libraries with Firefox, you can follow the instructions at http://pki.fedoraproject.org/wiki/ECC_Capable_NSS to build a version of NSS that doesn't have a built-in ECC implementation but can be configured to use a third-party ECC implementation with no crippled functionality. That wiki page is intended for exactly your scenario. Wan-Teh -- dev-tech-crypto mailing list dev-tech-crypto@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-tech-crypto
