From 8686ed75081958714f5d7768b5b0b8bcdd86b0ff Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Darren Tucker Date: Mon, 20 Dec 2004 12:05:08 +1100 Subject: - (dtucker) [ssh-rand-helper.c] Fall back to command-based seeding if reading from prngd is enabled at compile time but fails at run time, eg because prngd is not running. Note that if you have prngd running when OpenSSH is built, OpenSSL will consider itself internally seeded and rand-helper won't be built at all unless explicitly enabled via --with-rand-helper. ok djm@ --- ChangeLog | 9 ++++++++- ssh-rand-helper.c | 43 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++---------------- 2 files changed, 35 insertions(+), 17 deletions(-) diff --git a/ChangeLog b/ChangeLog index 469fa4954..c6cf7b386 100644 --- a/ChangeLog +++ b/ChangeLog @@ -1,3 +1,10 @@ +20041220 + - (dtucker) [ssh-rand-helper.c] Fall back to command-based seeding if reading + from prngd is enabled at compile time but fails at run time, eg because + prngd is not running.
