Hi

I am trying to configure NSS on a Windows 2003 machine to work as a
JCE provider under Java 6 in the FIPS mode. I am using the
instructions
http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/guides/security/p11guide.html#NSS

However I am unable to add modules to the secmod.db. Running the
command

C:\nssbin\bin>modutil -add "Softoken" -nocertdb -force -mechanisms
RSA:DSA:RC4:DES -libfile c:\nssbin\lib\softokn3.dll -dbdir c:\nssbin
\fipsdb
Using database directory c:\nssbin\fipsdb...
ERROR: Failed to add module "Softoken".

What am I doing wrong?
Is there another module that I should be using instead of
softokn3.dll.
softoken is already added automatically whenever you start NSS. If you are trying to add softoken as a JCE provider for Java, then you would have to follow their instructions for loading PKCS #11 modules.
