That's a good reference on PRNGs. There is also the work on Yarrow, http://www.counterpane.com/yarrow-notes.html The best implementation of Yarrow that I know of is http://opensource.zeroknowledge.com/yarrow/ the implementation available on Couternpane's site is of an old version of Yarrow, and had some security bugs (don't know if they were fixed...). Also interesting is David Wagner's collection of links to stuff about randomness: http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~daw/rnd/ --Anton --------------------------------------------------------------------- The Cryptography Mailing List Unsubscribe by sending "unsubscribe cryptography" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
