Hello,

I have written a PKCS#11 module, which provides certificate and private
key storage and usage. It works with Mozilla under Linux and Windows
(2000, XP). Right now, if some user wants to use my module, he has to
open a specially crafted HTML file which contains some JavaScript which
"adds" the module (with pkcs11.addmodule).

I would like to provide some system-wide installation procedure, such
that the machine root or administrator installs the module, which then
becomes automatically available and activated for all users. Is it
doable, and, if yes, how ? More specifically:
-- Will I need to modify and recompile part of Mozilla ?
-- Will this require a new Mozilla installation or is it plugable into
an existing installation ?
-- Will this work for all users or just for future profile creations ?
-- What about Thunderbird, Firefox, Netscape 7 ?

Note that I will need this both for Windows (only the recent NT brand,
i.e. 2000 and XP -- the module uses functions which do not exist in
Windows 98 and Me) and for Linux (and other Unices).

Thanks for all information,


        --Thomas Pornin
