ok, I had problems installing /dev/random. I downloaded the package for
Solaris and when I do pkgadd -d . it just doesn't recognize that file as a
pkg...tried downloading it several times. I can't compile it from source
because we've only got the gcc compiler and it loks like version 0.3
requires cc.

Jennifer,
The default httpd.conf should work, however you have to have the
following two entries in place in order for the new /dev/random device
to work:
SSLRandomSeed startup file:/dev/urandom 512
SSLRandomSeed connect file:/dev/urandom 512
If this doesn't help, email me direct at [EMAIL PROTECTED] and I'll be
glad to send you my httpd.conf.
