Hi , I am configuring external HSM called SoftHSM to certificate system. Here is my configuration DogTag 9.0Fedora 15 After pkicreate, i created softhsm entry into the db. Here are the details [root@fed15vmnew alias]# modutil -dbdir . -nocertdb -listListing of PKCS #11 Modules----------------------------------------------------------- 1. NSS Internal PKCS #11 Module slots: 2 slots attached status: loaded slot: NSS Internal Cryptographic Services token: NSS Generic Crypto Services slot: NSS User Private Key and Certificate Services token: NSS Certificate DB 2.

Please help in setting up external HSM to be configured with certificate system. Thanks, Br,Kishore8105176926
