This may be the oposite of what you need however:
Java will allow you to get the private key in a JKS and write it out a
PKCS8 key to a file (Base64) like this:
KeyStore keystore = KeyStore.getInstance(keyStoreType);
BASE64Encoder encoder = new BASE64Encoder();
keystore.load(new FileInputStream(keystoreFile), password);
KeyPair keyPair = getPrivateKey(keystore, alias, password);
PrivateKey privateKey = keyPair.getPrivate();
System.out.println("Base64 encoding private key");
String encoded = encoder.encode(privateKey.getEncoded());
FileWriter fw = new FileWriter(exportedFile);
fw.write("-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----\n");
fw.write(encoded);
fw.write("\n");
fw.write("-----END PRIVATE KEY-----");
fw.close();
I'm not sure how to export private keys from NSS
Thanks,
