In what application?

Some applications, such as Mozilla's programs, have their own UI/GUI for
this.  With such applications, it is generally best to use the UI they
provide.

For applications that do not provide any UI for this, you may use the
NSS utility program modutil.

Remember, never use modutil to operate on a DB while the application(s)
that normally use(s) that DB is/are running.
