1) You can use modutil to remove the password for your key/cert database:
modutil -dbdir . -dbprefix slapd-serverID- -changepw 'NSS Certificate DB'
Then just hit Enter for the new password.
2) You can create a pin.txt file
cat > slapd-serverID-pin.txt
Internal (Software) Token:thepasswordforyourkeydb
^D
make sure the pin.txt file is owned by your server user (e.g. chown 
nobody:nobody) and is mode 0400
