Unfortunately it behaves the same with Windows snapshots. For case it's not obvious from my fist comment - if I call srand() before rand() it works well.

It doesn't work only on Windows PHP-CLI. As Windows Apache module and also on Linux PHP-CLI it works as it should. Reproduce code: --------------- echo rand(); Expected result: ---------------- (random value) Actual result: -------------- 24849 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=26381&edit=1
