Thanks, [Steve, good info!] we're on the right track now.  A few fine
details to work out but it is running.  I had a question on this
following
part:

>The openssl docs describe how the certificate creation utilities work

I've not found a CA.pl script.  What I see in the /misc directory is a
CA
script but that isn't in perl, so I wanted to check in case I'm missing
something.  Where can I find this CA.pl?

Netscape FIPS140-1 cipher compatibility

2002-02-02 Thread Tom Tang

Hi,

   I am having problems getting the mentioned cipher to work with a
program 
we have at our company.  Does anybody have information as how to resolve
this issue, or am I missing something in the settings/compilation ?
Thanks.

FreeBSD /dev/random vs OpenSSL random lib

2001-10-22 Thread Tom Tang

Hello,

   This maybe a stupid question...

   How does FreeBSD's /dev/random compare to the OpenSSL random number
library ?
I ran ent and a few other random number testers on 5MB of data and the
results while
not the same, were pretty close.  Anyone ?

Seeding from /dev/random

2001-10-20 Thread Tom Tang

Hello,

   I am wondering if I was running OpenSSL on a BSD machine, whether or not
/dev/random would be a suitable seeder ?  Better yet, could I replace the
RNG
in OpenSSL with this  ?

Thanks.

Seeding from /dev/random (Revised Question)

2001-10-20 Thread Tom Tang

Duh,

  Total brain freeze.  OpenSSL already using /dev/random for seeding it
seems.
Never mind...

Kernel port of OpenSSL

2001-10-10 Thread Tom Tang

Hello,

   I was wondering if anyone has ever tried to port OpenSSL or portions
of it into the kernel (*nix).  I posed this question on the dev mailing list
but got no response.  Thanks.
