As I've seen no mention of this anywhere, I've got to assume it's just me. Doing some of the CR updates last night, google-chrome and firefox suddenly stopped working with https pages, including google itself. I was able to downgrade, but wasn't sure exactly what had caused the problem. Tonight, trying again, package by package, it seems that it's nss-softokn that's causing the problem. Has anyone run into something similar? For example, if I upgrade to the CR version, then open chromium and type a search phrase, I'll get message that this web page not available. Firefox is somewhat more informative, ---------- An error occurred during a connection to www.google.com. security library: invalid algorithm. (Error code: sec_error_invalid_algorithm) The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified. Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem. Alternatively, use the command found in the help menu to report this broken site. -------- This happens when I upgrade to nss-softokn.3.14.3-9.el6 When I downgrade to 3.14.3-3.el6_4 it's fine. Has anyone else run into this? -- Scott Robbins PGP keyID EB3467D6 ( 1B48 077D 66F6 9DB0 FDC2 A409 FA54 EB34 67D6 ) gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys EB3467D6

Maybe this will help, or the Fedora bug listed in above link: http://dilfridge.blogspot.ie/2013/11/deactivating-rc4-cipher-in-firefox.html Do it for both rc4 and md5.

As I was doing CR updates in bits and pieces, I think I installed nss-softokn and didn't install nss-softokn-freebl. Installing both at the same time seems to have fixed the issue. -- Scott Robbins PGP keyID EB3467D6 ( 1B48 077D 66F6 9DB0 FDC2 A409 FA54 EB34 67D6 ) gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys EB3467D6
