What does EVP Stand for?
Hello. No matter where I look I can't find a description of what EVP stands for. I've got several guesses, but for some reason I just have to know for sure. Thanx. benr. __ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List[EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]

This explanation from doc/ssleat.txt should give you enough of an answer: EVP The Digital EnVeloPe library is quite large. At it's core are function to perform encryption and decryption by parts while using an initial parameter to specify which of the 17 different ciphers or 4 different message digests to use. On top of these are implmented the digital signature functions, sign, verify, seal and open. Base64 encoding of binary data is also done in this library.

Does anyone use egads?
Title: Does anyone use egads? Hi there, Just wondering if anyone uses Entropy Gathering And Distribution System (EGADS)? I'm using it on Windows. But I just noticed, it is a HUGE memory hog. Just starting up the egads service, it immediately takes up almost 150Mb of RAM. Does that sound right? Just wanted to here other people's experience with it, and if there are other options for gathering entropy on windows; something that doesn't require user interaction such as mouse clicks, etc. since the machine is a server. Thanks, Ed

Hello, I'm new on this list and don't know if someone asked this: Is there a way to generate a new Certificate Requisition automatically using parameters, without the openssl prompts?
