Michael,

SSL - and this is what the whole story is all about - exchanges certificates 
between 2 hosts in general. With respect to NW these are 2 NW client programs 
which can live on the
  another NW client
  the NW server
  a NW SNode
So lots of combinations are possible. Worst case, each computer (the 'Local 
Host') will talk to every other NW computer 'The Peer'. However, if a NW client 
talks to itself, there is no need for SSL. Consequently, there is no peer 
information and of course there is no info that even can be deleted.

So if you have 2 NW hosts (for example 'nwserver' and 'nwclient') you could - 
worst case - delete the info on both hosts as follows:

1) nsradmin -s nwserver -p nsrexec
. type: nsr peer information; name nwclient
print               <---  (for verification)
delete

2) nsradmin -s nwclient-p nsrexec
. type: nsr peer information; name nwserver
print               <---  (for verification)
delete



BTW 
  - daemon.raw will tell you exactly, what to delete on which host. Here the 
example from the Error Message Guide:
System error: There is already a machine using the name: <name>. Either choose 
a different name for your machine, or delete the "NSR peer information" entry 
for <name> on host: <hostname>

  - Explaing problems verbally does not always help. In your case, copying the 
dialog from your CMD window would describe the facts much better.
