Details

Sometimes the browser and email client are unable to authenticate using my
smartcard certificate.  I get the error "an unknown SSL has occurred -12222".

If I remove my smarcard and reinsert it, I'm prompted for my PIN and then I'm
able to SSL client-auth again to my web server or SSL/IMAP server.

It's not predictably reproducable but happens at least every day.

nelson, any idea why we would get this error on a regular basis?

I might guess that there's a bug in either the particular smart card's 
PKCS#11 "module", or in NSS's PK11 "wrapper" functions that call the 
module.

can anybody reproduce this with a recent Mozilla version like 1.1beta?
Marking works for me.
