The man pages states (for Precise): -salt use a salt in the key derivation routines. This is the default.
-nosalt don't use a salt in the key derivation routines. This option SHOULD NOT be used except for test purposes or compatibility with ancient versions of OpenSSL and SSLeay. It is now clear enough that -salt is enabled by default, therefore I'll close this report ** Changed in: openssl (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/426513 Title: openssl enc documentation incorrect To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openssl/+bug/426513/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
