2.2. Client NSS Database Initialization
2.2. Client NSS Database Initialization On Red Hat Certificate System, certain interfaces may need to access the server using TLS client certificate authentication (mutual authentication). Before performing server-side admin tasks, you need to: Prepare an NSS database for the client. This can be a new database or an existing one. Import the CA certificate chain and trust them. Have a certificate and corresponding key. They can be generated in the NSS database or imported from somewhere else, such as from a PKCS #12 file. Based on the utility, you need to initialize the NSS database accordingly. See: Section 2.5.1.1, "pki CLI Initialization" Section 2.3.1, " pkiconsole Initialization" Section 2.4.1, "Browser Initialization"
