Re: RAND_seed & RAND_bytes on Windows. How many random bytes I must give for function RAND_seed to seed PRNG properly?

2011-07-01 Thread Vladimir Belov
Thanks for answers, Jeff. But I still have questions: Why not allow OpenSSL to auto seed itself? Because on Windows we have not /dev/random and that's why I think that auto seed will be worse. But if OpenSSL seed PRNG automatically and I must not do anything else, why in FAQ I see: "On other s

Hello list. Sorry for what is likely a simple question but I'm running out of time and could use a quick hand. I have a program that encrypts data using AES256 CBC mode and a 256 bit (obviously) key provided directly to the encryption engine as-is. I need our Windows-using counterpart to encrypt

I am using Managed Sockets, and the socket is not hanging, BeginReceive function sets the callback function receive data, and that callback function is printing the log entry, so i assume the callback setting was successful, but the BeginReceive function call never returns. On Fri, Jul 1, 2011 at

Did you implement fd timeouts and appropriate cleanups after some expiration? It's impossible for non blocking sockets to hang..so I am assuming ur having a lot of unused fds on ur poll table. On Friday, July 1, 2011, Harshvir Sidhu wrote: > Hi, >   I have implemented the state machine in my mana

Hello. I'll collect entropy(random bytes) myself on Windows. How many random bytes I must give for function RAND_seed to seed PRNG properly in two cases: 1) Generating RSA keys. 2) Programming SSL-TLS. And where I must call RAND_seed during SSL-TLS programming? I think internal functions

Hello! s_server (and probably other TLS servers), requires ECDH parameters, if using ECDH ciphersuites. (probably similarily as for DH parameters with DH ciphersuites). It seems, that these are supposed to be generated using: ecparam -name 'name_of_named_curve', but this always generates the same
