Hello,
we're currently doing an implementation of NSS and one of our HSM's for
a customer. So far this works perfectly fine. However the problem
arrises if we try to disable the whole module or a particular slot using
"modutil -disable...".
Short story, it seems to have no effect.
Long story, looking at the code PK11_UserDisableSlot seems to do what is
expected to do. Also debugging on the low-level shows that secmod.db
gets modified in order to reflect the change. But any consecutive
"modutil -list..." is still displaying the slot as enabled.
We also tried to modify the code so when a new module is added the
SlotSructure defaults to slot->disabled = PR_TRUE. Which results in an
"disabled" status while listing the module. Still, a "modutil -enable"
seems to do the job codewise but the result ist the expected one. So the
slot in this case remains disabled and does not get changed.
So whichever way we looked at it, we cant figure out what the problem
here is.
Any suggestions are much appreciated.
