If you are on 11.11 you need to see if you have random number generator installed. You can get the rand gen product for 11.11 from: http://h20293.www2.hp.com/portal/swdepot/displayProductInfo.do?productNumber=KRNG11I
If you do not want to install a random number generator, then check to see if prngd is running. If prngd is not running you can start it by :/sbin/init.d/prngd.rc start It would be useful to know what version of HP-UX and OpenSSL you are using. You can get the latest openssl for HP-UX at: http://h20293.www2.hp.com/portal/swdepot/displayProductInfo.do?productNumber=OPENSSL11I -Mike -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tan, Liao Sent: Wednesday, September 03, 2008 5:52 AM To: openssl-users@openssl.org Subject: Error when creating certificate in HPUX Folks, Im trying to find solution for this issue.
