Thanks Kyle. Actually I need create some programme to install my pkcs11 library globally for all firefox profiles/users, and don't need modutil or copy secmod.db for new profiles/users.
I have one method now. Create a firefox addon and set it as a global extension. Then install my pkcs11 through the addon on firefox startup. We can install addons globally through "firefox -install-global-extension". Is there similar easy way to add my pkcs11 lib globally? wolfoftheair wrote: > > Nope.
