hello all,

i am looking for the SUNWski package for Solaris 7 (intel) as it provides /dev/random. the package was provided with the "Sun Webserver" product which was also shipped on the "Solaris Easy Access CDs" (with Solaris 2.6 and Solaris 7). does anyone happen to have a copy of it ?

i was able to find only a copy of the package for the sparc platform (1.0,REV=1998.09.24.00.00) via google.

my original problem is that bind (9.2.x) gives errors when the already installed EGD (http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/index.html) on this machine is configured as "random-device" via named.conf. the errors are:

named[11536]: errno2result.c:109: unexpected error:
named[11536]: unable to convert errno to isc_result: 122: Operation not supported on transport endpoint
named[11536]: errno2result.c:109: unexpected error:
named[11536]: unable to convert errno to isc_result: 122: Operation not supported on transport endpoint named[11536]: could not open entropy source /var/run/egd-pool: unexpected error

the egd pool is working fine as far as i can tell:

#egc.pl /var/run/egd-pool get
 32800 bits of entropy in pool

#egc.pl /var/run/egd-pool read 255
got 255 bytes of entropy: fd0ad92d9b37f32bd090e63e5762802713fa14d85842777e244c384161
<output truncated>

any help will be appreciated.

greetings,


Stoyan
