Having been stymied on this for a bit before posting, after posting, I came to the conclusion that perhaps this was an "older version doesn't like newer package" situation, so I grabbed v3.0.0. After some cajoling, it's basically at the same point, but with slightly different text:
[Wed May 14 18:00:52 2008] [error] [client xx.xx.xx.xx] Ciphertext does not begin with a valid header for 'randomiv' header mode at /usr/local/opensrs-client-3.0.0/lib/OpenSRS/CBC_Connector.pm line 284, referer: http://home.terraworld.net/cgi-bin/manage.cgi From my searches, it seems that the 'randomiv' and 'salt' have something to do with the default header_mode setting in CBC. I did find a blog post that suggested changing the default header_mode in CBC.pm to randomiv instead of salt, but changing that setting didn't have any impact. Again, the verify_install.cgi output: OpenSRS Client Debugger Ciphertext does not begin with a valid header for 'randomiv' header mode at verify_install.cgi line 633 Client Software Configuration Verify Install URL http://home.terraworld.net/cgi-bin/verify_install.cgi OpenSRS Client IP Address xx.xx.xx.xx OpenSRS version 3.0.0 Perl version 5.008008 Operating System Linux censored 2.6.18-53.1.13.el5 #1 SMP Tue Feb 12 13:01:45 EST 2008 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux Perl compiled for linux (i386-linux-thread-multi) Connection Type CBC Server Hostname horizon.opensrs.net Server Port 55000 HTTPS Port 55443 Reseller Username censored Private Key Length 112 Encryption [CBC] Encryption Method Blowfish Checking for Crypt::Blowfish OK (version 2.10) Software Requirement Tests [CBC] Checking for Digest::MD5 OK (version 2.36) Checking for Unicode::String OK (version 2.09) Checking for Storable OK (version 2.15) Checking for Data::Dumper OK (version 2.121_08) Checking for HTML::Template OK (version 2.9) Checking for XML::Parser OK (version 2.34) Checking for Crypt::CBC OK (version 2.29) OpenSRS Client Modules XML Client Version XML:2.2.3b TPP Client Version 1.4.0 CBC Authentication Test I suspect that both errors are intimately related.
