πŸ’… _IMPORT_CRL(8) β€” like, the CRL import helper bestie

okay so real quick: this is a section 8 manual page from Executable programs, and the little star of the show is _import_crl. yes the leading underscore is part of the name, she's quirky like that πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

ipsec__import_crl β€” a helper program for importing a CRL into the NSS database πŸ—‚οΈβœ¨


🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so here's the tea β˜• β€” _import_crl gets spawned by pluto (yes, like, literally spawned, pluto is the parent, it's giving main character energy) and its whole job is to add or update a CRL in the NSS database.

the NSS database lives at /var/lib/ipsec/nss by default, iykyk 🫢

that's it. that's the whole gig. she's a helper, she's focused, she does one thing and she ate πŸ’…
