The sources to the nssckbi module are in this directory. + +I. Adding a Builtin Root CA Certificate + +You need to use the addbuiltin command-line tool to add a root CA certificate +to the nssckbi module. In the procedure described below, we assume that the +new root CA certificate is distributed in DER format in the file newroot.der. + +1. Add the directory where the addbuiltin executable resides to your PATH +environment variable. Then, add the directory where the NSPR and NSS shared +libraries (DLLs) reside to the platform-specific environment variable that +specifies your shared library search path: LD_LIBRARY_PATH (most Unix +variants), SHLIB_PATH (32-bit HP-UX), LIBPATH (AIX), or PATH (Windows). + +2. Copy newroot.der to this directory. + +3. In this directory, run addbuiltin to add the new root certificate. The +argument to the -n option should be replaced by the nickname of the root +certificate. + + % addbuiltin -n "Nickname of the Root Certificate" -t C,C,C < newroot.der >> certdata.txt + +4. Edit nssckbi.h to bump the version of the module. + +5. Run gmake in this directory to build the nssckbi module. + +6.
