NAME

6       secmod.db - Legacy NSS security modules database
7

DESCRIPTION

9       secmod.db is an NSS security modules database.
10
11       The security modules database is used to keep track of the NSS security
12       modules. The NSS security modules export their services via the PKCS
13       #11 API which NSS uses as its Services Provider Interface.
14
15       The command line utility modutil is used for managing PKCS #11 module
16       information both within secmod.db files and within hardware tokens.
17
18       For new applications the recommended way of tracking security modules
19       is via the pkcs11.txt configuration file used in conjunction the new
20       sqlite-based shared database format for certificate and key databases.
