Hi,

I take it "Extended ECC" is the additional option of
"NSS_ECC_MORE_THAN_SUITE_B"?  I tried NSS 3.12.5 with NSPR 8.2 with only
that option and "NSS_ENABLE_ECC", so it's using softoken.  Unfortunately,
still getting the same error.  Here's the command again in case I made a
mistake:

certutil -R -s "CN=ectest, O=ectest, L=ectest, ST=ectest, C=US" -p
"123-456-7890" -o ectest.req -d . -k ec -q nistp256 -Z SHA256

Thanks,
Kai
