RE: PRNG errors

2002-08-01 Thread Courtin Bert

Hi,

the combination of software you use works fine for me on solaris 8.

However, when using these versions, I faced the following probelm:

- apache wont start up with the option SSLRandomSeed startup builtin enabled. I 
then installed the package ANDIrand-0.7-5.8-sparc-1.pkg from 
http://www.cosy.sbg.ac.at/~andi/; which provides a /dev/random resp. /dev/urandom. 

Using this (SSLRandomSeed startup file:/dev/urandom 1024) my apache starts up fine.

So:
 - Does OpenBSD have a /dev/urandom? - Try using it-
 - If not, maybe the package I stated above is available for OpenBSD as well.


Kind regards,
B. Courtin


BTW: For all those using mm: Please notice that there is a security bug in mm  
version 1.2.1 as well which was announced on Jul 30 2002? Have a look here:

Advisory: http://www.openpkg.org/security/OpenPKG-SA-2002.007-mm.html (CERT ID 
2002-453dcert).

You can get the latest version of mm here: http://www.ossp.org/pkg/lib/mm/

Subject: PRNG errors


Hello everyone.

I just upgraded my OpenSSL yesterday from 9.6c to 9.6e, then recompiled my
mod_ssl-2.8.10-1.3.26 and Apache on OpenBSD 3.0. Everything seemed to go
fine, but now all my https request are unable to connect. According to all
the docs I've seen the error message suggest changing the SSLRandomSeed
setting in the httpd.conf, however I've tried various setting, see the new
value for the Seeding PRNG line in the log, but the handshake still
fails with the same error message. Can anyone suggest anything else that
maybe the issue.

Thanks,
benn
