+.SH "NAME"
+modutil \- Manage PKCS #11 module information within the security module database\&.
+.SH "SYNOPSIS"
+.HP \w'\fBmodutil\fR\ 'u
+\fBmodutil\fR [\fIoptions\fR] [[\fIarguments\fR]]
+.SH "STATUS"
+.PP
+This documentation is still work in progress\&. Please contribute to the initial review in
+\m[blue]\fBMozilla NSS bug 836477\fR\m[]\&\s-2\u[1]\d\s+2
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+The Security Module Database Tool,
+\fBmodutil\fR, is a command\-line utility for managing PKCS #11 module information both within
+secmod\&.db
+files and within hardware tokens\&.
+\fBmodutil\fR
+can add and delete PKCS #11 modules, change passwords on security databases, set defaults, list module contents, enable or disable slots, enable or disable FIPS 140\-2 compliance, and assign default providers for cryptographic operations\&. This tool can also create certificate, key, and module security database files\&.
+.PP
+The tasks associated with security module database management are part of a process that typically also involves managing key databases and certificate databases\&.
+.SH "OPTIONS"
+.PP
+Running
+\fBmodutil\fR
+always requires one (and only one) option to specify the type of module operation\&. Each option may take arguments, anywhere from none to multiple arguments\&.
+.PP
+\fBOptions\fR
+.PP
+\-add modulename
+.RS 4
+Add the named PKCS #11 module to the database\&. Use this option with the
+\fB\-libfile\fR,
+\fB\-ciphers\fR, and
+\fB\-mechanisms\fR
+arguments\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\-changepw tokenname
+.RS 4
+Change the password on the named token\&. If the token has not been initialized, this option initializes the password\&. Use this option with the
+\fB\-pwfile\fR
+and
+\fB\-newpwfile\fR
+arguments\&. A
+\fIpassword\fR
+is equivalent to a personal identification number (PIN)\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\-chkfips
+.RS 4
+Verify whether the module is in the given FIPS mode\&.
+\fBtrue\fR
+means to verify that the module is in FIPS mode, while
+\fBfalse\fR
+means to verify that the module is not in FIPS mode\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\-create
+.RS 4
+Create new certificate, key, and module databases\&. Use the
+\fB\-dbdir\fR
+directory argument to specify a directory\&. If any of these databases already exist in a specified directory,
+\fBmodutil\fR
+returns an error message\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\-default modulename
+.RS 4
+Specify the security mechanisms for which the named module will be a default provider\&. The security mechanisms are specified with the
+\fB\-mechanisms\fR
+argument\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\-delete modulename
+.RS 4
+Delete the named module\&. The default NSS PKCS #11 module cannot be deleted\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\-disable modulename
+.RS 4
+Disable all slots on the named module\&. Use the
+\fB\-slot\fR
+argument to disable a specific slot\&.
+.sp
+The internal NSS PKCS #11 module cannot be disabled\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\-enable modulename
+.RS 4
+Enable all slots on the named module\&. Use the
+\fB\-slot\fR
+argument to enable a specific slot\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\-fips [true | false]
+.RS 4
+Enable (true) or disable (false) FIPS 140\-2 compliance for the default NSS module\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\-force
+.RS 4
+Disable
+\fBmodutil\fR\*(Aqs interactive prompts so it can be run from a script\&. Use this option only after manually testing each planned operation to check for warnings and to ensure that bypassing the prompts will cause no security lapses or loss of database integrity\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\-jar JAR\-file
+.RS 4
+Add a new PKCS #11 module to the database using the named JAR file\&. Use this command with the
+\fB\-installdir\fR
+and
+\fB\-tempdir\fR
+arguments\&. The JAR file uses the NSS PKCS #11 JAR format to identify all the files to be installed, the module\*(Aqs name, the mechanism flags, and the cipher flags, as well as any files to be installed on the target machine, including the PKCS #11 module library file and other files such as documentation\&. This is covered in the JAR installation file section in the man page, which details the special script needed to perform an installation through a server or with
+\fBmodutil\fR\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\-list [modulename]
+.RS 4
+Display basic information about the contents of the
+secmod\&.db
+file\&. Specifying a
+\fImodulename\fR
+displays detailed information about a particular module and its slots and tokens\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\-rawadd
+.RS 4
+Add the module spec string to the
+secmod\&.db
+database\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\-rawlist
+.RS 4
+Display the module specs for a specified module or for all loadable modules\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\-undefault modulename
+.RS 4
+Specify the security mechanisms for which the named module will not be a default provider\&. The security mechanisms are specified with the
+\fB\-mechanisms\fR
+argument\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fBArguments\fR
+.PP
+MODULE
+.RS 4
+Give the security module to access\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+MODULESPEC
+.RS 4
+Give the security module spec to load into the security database\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\-ciphers cipher\-enable\-list
+.RS 4
+Enable specific ciphers in a module that is being added to the database\&. The
+\fIcipher\-enable\-list\fR
+is a colon\-delimited list of cipher names\&. Enclose this list in quotation marks if it contains spaces\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\-dbdir [sql:]directory
+.RS 4
+Specify the database directory in which to access or create security module database files\&.
+.sp
+\fBmodutil\fR
+supports two types of databases: the legacy security databases (cert8\&.db,
+key3\&.db, and
+secmod\&.db) and new SQLite databases (cert9\&.db,
+key4\&.db, and
+pkcs11\&.txt)\&. If the prefix
+\fBsql:\fR
+is not used, then the tool assumes that the given databases are in the old format\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\-\-dbprefix prefix
+.RS 4
+Specify the prefix used on the database files, such as
+my_
+for
+my_cert8\&.db\&. This option is provided as a special case\&. Changing the names of the certificate and key databases is not recommended\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\-installdir root\-installation\-directory
+.RS 4
+Specify the root installation directory relative to which files will be installed by the
+\fB\-jar\fR
+option\&. This directory should be one below which it is appropriate to store dynamic library files, such as a server\*(Aqs root directory\&.
+.RE

+\-libfile library\-file
+.RS 4
+Specify a path to a library file containing the implementation of the PKCS #11 interface module that is being added to the database\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\-mechanisms mechanism\-list
+.RS 4
+Specify the security mechanisms for which a particular module will be flagged as a default provider\&. The
+\fImechanism\-list\fR
+is a colon\-delimited list of mechanism names\&. Enclose this list in quotation marks if it contains spaces\&.
+.sp
+The module becomes a default provider for the listed mechanisms when those mechanisms are enabled\&. If more than one module claims to be a particular mechanism\*(Aqs default provider, that mechanism\*(Aqs default provider is undefined\&.
+.sp
+\fBmodutil\fR
+supports several mechanisms: RSA, DSA, RC2, RC4, RC5, AES, DES, DH, SHA1, SHA256, SHA512, SSL, TLS, MD5, MD2, RANDOM (for random number generation), and FRIENDLY (meaning certificates are publicly readable)\&.
+.RE
+.PP

+\fBAdding a Cryptographic Module\fR
+.PP
+Adding a PKCS #11 module means submitting a supporting library file, enabling its ciphers, and setting default provider status for various security mechanisms\&. This can be done by supplying all of the information through
+\fBmodutil\fR
+directly or by running a JAR file and install script\&. For the most basic case, simply upload the library:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4

+\fBInstalling a Cryptographic Module from a JAR File\fR

+PKCS #11 modules can also be loaded using a JAR file, which contains all of the required libraries and an installation script that describes how to install the module\&. The JAR install script is described in more detail in
+the section called \(lqJAR INSTALLATION FILE FORMAT\(rq\&.
+.PP
+The JAR installation script defines the setup information for each platform that the module can be installed on\&. For example:

Still, NSS requires more flexibility to provide a truly shared security database\&.

+Because the SQLite databases are designed to be shared, these are the

+.PP
+By default, the tools (\fBcertutil\fR,
+\fBpk12util\fR,
+\fBmodutil\fR) assume that the given security databases follow the more common legacy type\&. Using the SQLite databases must be manually specified by using the
+\fBsql:\fR
+prefix with the given security directory\&. For example:
