Re: openssl freezes ssh and entire inet service

why would this occur? I thought openssl was stable. Does it have to do with the key length? Btw, I'm running openbsd/sparc64 just so that you know Thanks for the quick reply, Vivek On Sun, Mar 1, 2009 at 9:49 PM, Damien Miller wrote: > On Sun, 1 Mar 2009, Vivek Ayer wrote: > >> Hi, >> >> I'm not

openssl freezes ssh and entire inet service

Hi, I'm not sure why it happens, but I tried running: openssl genrsa -out /etc/ssl/private/server.key 1024 over an ssh connection to a web server that I wanted to setup as https. Believe it or not, it froze while it was running openssl. Now I can't ping it or do anything. Could this be because h

The only issue I have, and it's been there for years is the CD-Rom give issues at time, so I just unplug them after the install and a very minor thing that really doesn't do much, but there is a off by one in the USB code somewhere that makes the kernel try to reinitialize the USB all the time

Due to having a usage cap on my Internet connection (cellular), I don't typically run -CURRENT, and I could find no mention of this question in either "faq4.html" or "current.html" When running -CURRENT snapshots, should we send in a new dmesg every time we install a new snapshot? thanks, jon --

Take a look at Live CD or Live DVD methods for OpenBSD, / contains /dev /etc copies are made in memory file systems (changes to /etc will be lost). Mounting a read-only / can simply be reversed with mount -u -w /. To make it more difficult take a look at chflags schg, which make files immutable and
