This is not what the FreeBSD NSS port claims in the package description file: http://mirrors.sunsite.dk/freebsd/FreeBSD-stable/ports/security/nss/pkg-descr ] Network Security Services (NSS) is a set of libraries designed to support ] cross-platform development of security-enabled server applications. ] Applications built with NSS can support SSL v2 and v3, TLS, PKCS #5, PKCS #7, ] PKCS #11, PKCS #12, S/MIME, X.509 v3 certificates, and other security ] standards. ] ] WWW: http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/pki/nss/ 8-).
