According to the usage message of client.exe: http://lxr.mozilla.org/security/source/security/nss/cmd/SSLsample/client.c#79 you should pass the host name as the last command-line argument. The hostname can be either a DNS name or an IP address. But you also need to specify the port number using the -p option, e.g., -p 443 or -p 8443. Otherwise you'll get the usage message. By the way, you should use selfserv as the sample server and tstclnt or strsclnt as the sample client because the code in SSLsample is a little out of date. > Also, I found that the dlls which are given in the NSS/NSPR packages > are not sufficient: while running the client-server or the other exes > given in the NSS/lib folder, it first crashes asking for files such as > libplc4.dll, libnspr4.dll and libplds4.dll.

If you use the MozillaBuild command shell (which is "bash"), use this command: export OS_TARGET=WIN95 You only need to set this environment when building NSS and NSPR. When you build your own application, you don't need to set this environment variable.
