Description Nalin Dahyabhai 2006-03-15 22:32:16 UTC
Description of problem:
When I run "certutil -R" and supply an email address using the -y flag, I get an
error message.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
nss-tools-3.11-4

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. mkdir /tmp/z
2. certutil -d /tmp/z -N
3. certutil -d /tmp/z -R -s 'cn=Nalin Dahyabhai' -a -o /tmp/z/nalin.req -y
nalin
  
Actual results:
I get this error message:
certutil -y: incorrect public exponent 0.Must be 3, 17, or 65537.

Expected results:
certutil would usually ask me to help it seed its RNG, and proceed as normally

This bug is not about the RPM package, but about behaviour in the core NSS
product. I filed bug

Resolving as UPSTREAM, I hope that's the right thing to do.
