Description Matthew Harmsen 2011-05-09 20:16:05 UTC 
The DRM Rekey tool (reference Bugzilla Bug #532548 - Tool to do DRM re-key) needs to open both legacy NSS security databases as well as current NSS security databases in order to use a legacy key for unwrapping/decrypting and using a current key for wrapping/encrypting.

NSS contains functions to support this feature
(located in mozilla/security/nss/lib/pk11wrap/pk11util.c):

- PK11SlotInfo *SECMOD_OpenUserDB( const char *moduleSpec)
- SECStatus SECMOD_CloseUserDB( PK11SlotInfo *slot )

JSS needs to add access to these two methods.
Comment 3 Matthew Harmsen 2011-05-23 21:04:28 UTC 
This was originally desired for DRMTool.  However, when it was discovered that these two functions did not include the secmod.db database, a different approach was taken, and these two functions no longer need to be exposed through JSS.
