I know it shouldn't make a difference, but we all know that things that shouldn't, do. I wasn't seeding it explicitly, was letting perl handle it. Unless it's a bug, my theory is that mod_perl is keeping the old seed from the last compile. Mod_perl does not recompile or even reinitialize

Persistent Crypt::RSA keys?

2005-12-01 Thread Brian H. Oak
I'm trying to integrate RSA encryption and signing into a couple of Perl programs on Windows, using Crypt::RSA. I have no problem generating keys and using them immediately for encryption, decryption, signing, and verification. My problems have been with storing the keys I've created for later

Well, you certainly have created quite a rant here. But if you are looking for unique filenames, have you tried this? use Time::HiRes qw (time); printf(%0.6f\.txt,time); Just a thought. It's also guaranteed no dupes for about 20 years, unless you want lots of file names in a VERY VERY short
