Hi,
Sorry for the previous subscribe message, wrong button (it's late, etc. etc).
Okay, okay, beat me up later...
I'm working on an Alpha system running Digital UNIX 4.0f and have a
requirement to implement IMAP with SSL support for Outlook clients (yuck!).
I have built tcpwrapper, openssl and stunnel (all latest versions).
Digital UNIX doesn't have a /dev/*random, so I also got the EGD perl script
and have executed it for a time as "egd.pl $HOME/.rnd" (and whatever other
command line options the docs said to -- anyway EGD seems to be working fine,
makes the socket, etc).
But I'm still getting the "PRNG not seeded" message in the syslog when I try
to launch stunnel. I built openssl after installing egd (and stunnel after
that).
So far, in the docs I've read, I haven't managed to figure out what all I'm
supposed to change to make openssl work with egd. I replaced all the
RAND_seed()'s with RAND_egd("$HOME/.rnd"); (where $HOME is actually the home
directory of the user, NOT the string "$HOME" -- e.g. to test it all I'm using
root's home and doing RAND_egd("/.rnd"); after having launched egd.pl to open
that socket).
Can anyone give me any pointers with how to get openssl to work with egd? All
the egd docs are more GPG-centric.
I didn't find anything in stunnel that seemed to indicate the changes needed
to be there (I don't see any RAND_seed() or RAND_add() calls at all in the
stunnel sources).
Thanks in advance for any help...
