That's normal. The DB is allocated with a minimum of one "page" of memory, and it doesn't grow until the data in that page exceeds one page. Then it grows to two pages, etc. Your single key hasn't caused it to grow to a second page yet. Did the keygen ever ask you to type in characters to act as a random number generator? Did it prompt you for a password? > After i try: > certutil -K \docume~1\llimou~1\mydocu~1\security\server_db > > and I get: > certutil: no keys found: Failure to load dynamic library. I've seen that too. I think this may be a case of an old error message being displayed because the code is not properly setting a new error code. In other words, I'm not sure that you're actually having a problem due to a DLL load failure. During the couse of NSS initialization, NSS atttempts to load some DLLs that often don't exist. That's not a fatal problem. If the code that looks for keys doesn't set a new error code, you get the left over error code. > I am using nss-3.4.1 and nspr-4.1.2.

Is the failure a failure to gen (and the -K command is correctly reporting no keys found)? Or is the key being genned, but the -K command isn't finding it? Did you get prompted for passwords in either command? > -LL -- Nelson Bolyard Disclaimer: I speak for myself, not for Netscape
