Use RAND_egd("/var/opt/prngd/egd-pool") in whatever program you're compiling to use with OpenSSL. Just make sure you call that routine before doing any SSL functions.

OS: HPUX 11 SSL VER: OpenSSL 0.9.6g 9 Aug 2002 Hello, I'm compiling SSL from source. My problem is that my system does not have "/dev/random". So I installed a entropy gathering daemon called "prngd". I wanted to use SSL with prngd, so I used the following line to install SSL: ./config --with-prngd-socket=/var/opt/prngd/egd-pool However this did not work. Is there a way to have SSL use prngd?
