PKCS12 Certificates and Private Keys

2008-07-31 Thread joshuaaa
If I understand correctly, to import a certificate from a .p12 file, you first have to store the private key on the internal key storage token before you can import the certificate. Is this correct? I've been banging my head against the wall for the past couple of days trying to figure out why I c

adding and removing certificate while FF3 is running?

2008-07-23 Thread joshuaaa
I was under the impression (read somewhere here) that firefox 3 would allow the cert database to be updated WHILE firefox was running. I'm getting the same old behavior in FF3. ie. remove cert while firefox is open, view cert manager and the cert still exists. Have I misunderstood or am I doing som

JSS setup incorrectly? Cryptomanager will not initialize.

2008-05-24 Thread joshuaaa
Hello, I installed jss today and attempted to run a test application with no luck. I've gone through many previous posts here and read the "using jss" section multiple times... still haven't figured out what the problem is. The cryptomanager will not initialize because apparently my jss4.dll can't
