+
+    <para>The Certificate Revocation List (CRL) Management Tool, <command>crlutil</command>, is a command-line utility that can list, generate, modify, or delete CRLs within the NSS security database file(s) and list, create, modify or delete certificates entries in a particular CRL.
+    </para>
+    <para>
+The key and certificate management process generally begins with creating keys in the key database, then generating and managing certificates in the certificate database(see certutil tool) and continues with certificates expiration or revocation.
+    </para>
+    <para>
+This document discusses certificate revocation list management. For information on security module database management, see Using the Security Module Database Tool. For information on certificate and key database management, see Using the Certificate Database Tool.
+    </para>
+
+    <para>
+To run the Certificate Revocation List Management Tool, type the command
+    </para>
+    <para>
+crlutil option [arguments]
+    </para>
+    <para>
+where options and arguments are combinations of the options and arguments listed in the following section. Each command takes one option. Each option may take zero or more arguments. To see a usage string, issue the command without options, or with the -H option.
