Mozilla NSS

Adaptation of the opsi-template scripts for Mozilla NSS.
Get it here, current version 3.19.2: http://www.gcecad-service.nl/downloads/mozilla-nss.zip
(This includes the binaries, and the opsi script files.)

There are no standard Windows binaries available, so you would have to compile NSS yourself. Of course there is an older version in binary available, but the compiling isn't very hard to do.
These two pages provide the information you need, and which I used:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Projects/NSS/Building
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Developer_guide/Build_Instructions/Windows_Prerequisites
If you do not want to compile it yourself, grab the zip file mentioned earlier.

Do look at the setup script, for the Windows version we copy a few dll files to the installation directory. If these are missing NSS will not work, and this has probably caused some confusion in the past.

[Files_install_32]
copy -s "%ScriptPath%\files\bin\*" "$InstallDir32$"
 
; Copy all dlls from lib directory
copy "%ScriptPath%\files\lib\freebl3.dll" "$InstallDir32$"
copy "%ScriptPath%\files\lib\nss3.dll" "$InstallDir32$"
copy "%ScriptPath%\files\lib\nssckbi.dll" "$InstallDir32$"
copy "%ScriptPath%\files\lib\nssdbm3.dll" "$InstallDir32$"
copy "%ScriptPath%\files\lib\nssutil3.dll" "$InstallDir32$"
copy "%ScriptPath%\files\lib\smime3.dll" "$InstallDir32$"
copy "%ScriptPath%\files\lib\softokn3.dll" "$InstallDir32$"
copy "%ScriptPath%\files\lib\sqlite3.dll" "$InstallDir32$"
copy "%ScriptPath%\files\lib\libssl3.dll" "$InstallDir32$"

Why didn't I use *.dll here? Oh well..
