Hi! I have just uploaded version 0.9.28 of prngd. It does fix a hang in an endless loop under certain conditions. I have never seen this myself on HP-UX but I have received some reports, more or less all from Solaris 8 users, one of which finally lead to the correct analysis. Problem: after calling waitpid(), errno is evaluated for the case of waidpid()=0 even though errno is not set in this case. If errno had the value "EINTR" at this point, an endless loop condition arose.
It is recommended that users of older versions of prngd upgrade to 0.9.28. Additional changes are related to minor bugfixes (possible core dumps due to NULL pointer access in snprintf()) and platform support. http://www.aet.tu-cottbus.de/personen/jaenicke/postfix_tls/prngd.html Best regards, Lutz -- Lutz Jaenicke [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.aet.TU-Cottbus.DE/personen/jaenicke/ BTU Cottbus, Allgemeine Elektrotechnik Universitaetsplatz 3-4, D-03044 Cottbus ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
