Hi Thomas,
Thanks for your response! It clears up matters a lot :)
There's one thing that I thought of though -- even though I'm generating
the salt via non-OpenSSL means, the actual function that I'm using for
hashing is "SHA512" from FIPS OpenSSL.
Does the mere usage of salt that was generated

Hi all,
I work on a consumer application which is striving to be fips-140-2
compliant.
I'm using OpenSSL as recommended in the fips guide by invoking
fips_mode_set(). However, in certain parts of the same application, I'm
using my own non-OpenSSL random number generator to generate salts for
hash
The Lavarnd project shows some weakness (vs NIST 800-22 testing) for both
/dev/urandom, and /dev/random.
Does anyone know of a project for software RNG that is high quality? The
/dev/random project is close - but fails the NSIT test for DFT Spectral
(uniformity)?

Random number generation always depends on the PRNG
being seeded first.
The man page clearly mentions that.
Add RAND_seed() or RAND_add() with the required
entropy required before calling RAND_bytes(). In a
pseudorandom number generator the seed uniquely
determines the random sequence. So you
This worked..Thanks a million. :-)

Hi,
I am looking for an powerful random number generation library for an
application. Is open ssl has such library. ( not pseudo random generations )
Is anyone know ?

If your under Unix, why not use /dev/rando

you can read as much as is available, with a non-blocking
file descriptor or with FIONREAD. If

Btw, is there any useful documentation around or in progress?
