Right. That was a case where the new cert met NSS's definition of "newer". It had the same notBefore date/time, and a newer/later notAfter date/time. There was no need to retain the old cert, because NSS would pick the new cert in every case where it must choose between the two. -- dev-tech-crypto mailing list dev-tech-crypto@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-tech-crypto
