Re: [openssl-dev] Work on a new RNG for OpenSSL

Is this new RNG object available to user programs, or do they need to reinvent the wheel even though they definitely link against the OpenSSL library? You don’t have to re-invent the wheel, but you might have to modify the source ☺ Did you read the blog posting? What wasn’t

Re: [openssl-dev] Work on a new RNG for OpenSSL

Offhand, I'd say it's a perfect solution. It allows me to mix in additional randomness when I want to the RNG that I think may need it. Exactly what I need. Thanks! P.S. I wonder if it's feasible to have a configuration parameter that would allow me to tell the TLS code to invoke
