you can use the ANDIrand package from http://anders.fix.no/solaris/pkg/sol8/random/. works fine.

Reading the FAQ, this error is there, but I still am unable to fix it. I've run, as root: # /usr/local/ssl/bin/openssl OpenSSL> rand 128 unable to load 'random state' This means that the random number generator has not been seeded with much random data. Consider setting the RANDFILE environment variable to point at a file that 'random' data can be kept in (the file will be overwritten). 563:error:24064064:random number generator:SSLEAY_RAND_BYTES:PRNG not seeded:md_rand.c:501:You need to read the OpenSSL FAQ, http://www.openssl.org/support/faq.html error in rand OpenSSL> So, what am I doing wrong?? I've also installed patch 112438-01, to enable random support, but the file /dev/random is not in my system (I even rebooted the machine after installing the patch). Thanks a lot, Leo ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED] ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
