GENRSA error!!
Hi all, I would like to know why I have this type of error, during key generating... My action is: /opt/apache/ssl/bin/openssl genrsa -des3 -out vpn.key 1024 and I receive: warning, not much extra random data, consider using the -rand option Generating RSA private key, 1024 bit long modulus 23897:error:24064064:random number generator:SSLEAY_RAND_BYTES:PRNG not seeded:md_rand.c:538: 23897:error:04069003:rsa routines:RSA_generate_key:BN lib:rsa_gen.c:182: Can you help me??? Thanks in advance, Marco.
genrsa not recognized
openssl genrsa -des3 -out server.key 1024 gave me an error saying that 'genrsa' isn't a recognized command of openssl. did i miss something during the build process? __ Apache Interface to OpenSSL (mod_ssl) www.modssl.org User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager[EMAIL PROTECTED]

If this holds for the Alpha compiler as well, openssl should behave normally if you recompile with the "-g" switch (and no -O switches).

Make sure you use the correct platform id on the "perl Configure" command line. Check this first. Ralf S.

How long should it take to generate an rsa key? A "make certificate" or an explicit openssl command (openssl genrsa -des3 -out server.key 1024) create a process that runs forever (at least for 24 hours before I killed it...). I've read some postings that indicated that bn recursion should be undefined. I've done that and recompiled without success. I'm not trying to create a large key, i.e., just 1024 bit. Is there something wrong here, or do I need to let the process run until it completes -- possibly days... running: DEC Unix 4.0e OpenSSL 0.9.2b 22 Mar 1999 with "make certificate": SSL Certificate Generation Utility (mkcert.sh) Copyright (c) 1998 Ralf S.
