RHEA-2011:0532 - new package: svrcore
Synopsis
new package: svrcore
Type/Severity
Product Enhancement Advisory
Topic
A new svrcore package is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.
Description
The svrcore package contains an API library which provides various methods of handling and managing secure Personal Identification Number (PIN) storage. The svrcore library uses the Mozilla NSS cryptographic library. An example of an application which would use svrcore is one that must be restarted without user intervention, but which requires a PIN to unlock a private key and other cryptographic objects.
This enhancement update adds a new svrcore package to Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. (BZ#643539)
All users requiring svrcore should install this newly-released package.

Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied.
