To answer myself; The problem was trivial. OpenSSL couldn't seed random generator for correct entropy without /dev/urandom or without a specified file, therefore i had to create a temporary file which consists of enough random numbers (1024). This was problem on solaris port, too, but on BSD it caused by chroot environment. OpenSSL got the filename consists of entropy from an environment value named RANDFILE. Some notice: I think an API hasn't consists of exit() calls and if i send a NULL pointer to an API call, it couldn't SEGFAULT. OpenSSL does. I think it is not a feature, or if it is, i'like to turn off. :/ TiTaNiC -- To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
