I want to import this certificate in all the versions of FF. I learnt something about certutil but it does not seem to solve the problem. Please tell me if there is any dll or library i can use to import certificates.

Hi Avipacher, can you please tell us more about the issue? Importing a certificate is easy, but it sounds like you don't want to do it manually. Maybe because you need to do it for a large number of installations?

We can help you better, if you give us a bit more info about the problem that you are trying to solve.

Yes, one part of an App i am developing is that, it should take a certificate from my webserver and import it into all the browsers present on the system of users who install my App. I have successfully imported it for IE and google chrome, but I am not able to do it with Firefox. At present I am targeting the app only for Windows.

I found something like certutil, but no success using that. If you know some way please tell.

Thanks Avinash

Unfortunately I don't know of any supported way to do that. I assume you'd have to add it to the "cert8.db" file in your profile folder. But that is only a guess. I'm not even sure what the file format for that one is using.
