Hello,
 I've been trying to import an AES 256 encrypted RSA Private Key
imported into NSS, to function as a PKCS 11 "AES Secret Key
Object" (aka object class CKO_SECRET_KEY, key type CKK_AES), but have
been unsuccessful.

 I attempted this using the symkeyutil tool, but it fails with the
following error

$ nss-symkeyutil -K -n "Test" -t aes -s 256 -d .
Enter Password or Pin for "NSS Certificate DB":
nss-symkeyutil: Token Key Gen Failed
nss-symkeyutil: The key does not support the requested operation.

  I get the same error if I try and import a key that I generated via
openssl.

  Is importing AES keys (as a PKCS11 Secret Key) into NSS supported?
And if so, how do I do it?

   The version of NSS :
$ port list installed | grep nss
nss                            @3.12.7         net/nss


Thanks!
Deepak.
