Hi,
If I try to create Diffie-Hellman key parameter (OpenSSL 1.0.0) via
openssl dhparam -out $KEY_DIR/dh1024.pem 1024
I get the following output:
"Generating DH parameters, 1024 bit long safe prime, generator 2
This is going to take a long tim
Great. Thanks for the info.

Thanks. I guess I should have did that first. My apologies. But I
couldn't find the answer to my next question. If the PRNG is already seeded
using the Crypto API, how many bits of entropy are used to seed it?
The following code is in crypto/rand/rand_win.c:
>>
dev/random/", iEntropy); // iEntroy = # bytes of entropy to
use
Is this correct for linux?
Thanks,
Ed

Hi there,
Just wondering what people typically use to seed the PRNG on Windows.
On linux, there is /dev/random. But there is no such device for
Windows. I've heard of EGADS, but when I installed the EGADS service,
I found it to be a huge memory hog. Are there any other opt

"sizeof randfname" is better.

Sorry, but I haven't understood this code, where I have to use, in the
server? and is it only to detect the problem or to solve it?
