Hi,

I have just unzipped "nss-3.11.4-with-nspr-4.6.4.tar.gz" (downloaded from the site) and then followed the build instructions - all seemd to go without problems. I then transferred some of the .so's and the utility "certutil" -

What does the following tell you:

ls -l certdb
which certutil
whereis libnss3.so
modutil -rawlist -dbdir certdb


When I ran this util to create the .db's I was greated with and error message that doesn't actually give much away (other then it hasn't worked)

[EMAIL PROTECTED] Certificate_Conversion_Tools(new)]$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=`pwd` [EMAIL PROTECTED] Certificate_Conversion_Tools(new)]$ ./certutil -N -d certdb/ certutil: function failed: An I/O error occurred during security authorization.
I usually see this when there is some sort of database failure other than the failure to open the database.

I repeated the exercise with the "nss-3.10.tar.gz" and that produced ..so's and executables that worked as documented. (which tends to suggest that my build and run-time environments are OK)

I am a relative newcomer to Linux and to NSS - what am I doing wrong!!!!!
