Can you please include the output of this command in both Solaris 2.4 and 2.6 (in php4): # grep RAND main/php_config.h It might be that in both of those system the seed generator found is srand() which isn't so good as srandom() is. But I also found (with google :) that srandom() might not be that good either (in Solaris) so that leaves us with a problem. One solution might be that we run php_srand() in RINIT instead of MINIT when Solaris is used. --Jani --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-01-22 06:05:34] [EMAIL PROTECTED] PHP compiled as Apache module. Look like crypt() starts from not random salt. In case of my Solaris 2.4, first crypt() call always generates string starting from "IH". In case of Solaris 2.6 it always starts from "C.". Looks like in every instantiation of new Apache process PHP starts crypt from the same salt value. In the same process next crypt() calls look like they generate random strings, though. But next process restarts with the same value. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ATTENTION! Do NOT reply to this email!
