NSS has a bunch of different initialization routines, but they all fit into two categories: - those that open the DBs "read only", and - those that open the DBs "read/write". The read-only functions will fail if the DBs don't exist. The read/write functions will create the DBs if they don't exist. It's that simple. JSS and PSM provide methods to open DBs. Just use one that opens them RW. Actually, I think ALL of PSM's methods open them RW. JSS has some of each flavor. _______________________________________________ dev-tech-crypto mailing list dev-tech-crypto@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-tech-crypto
