Hi, when running OpenSSH with EGD as entropy source, the sshd server connects to the EGD socket and leaves it open to re-seed on the fly. Unfortunately the connection is not checked when re-seeding, so that a failure or restart of EGD will lead to a "fatal()" abort of the sshd server process. Since a dying server process can not be accepted, I would recommend to not have sshd call it

I'm having a bit of trouble generating a host key on an x86 Solaris 8 system. I've gotten the following built and installed: egd-0.7 openssl-0.9.5a openssh-1.2.3 My perl version is 5.005_03. egd is running, and tests fine the egd "make test" and with: #./egd.pl /etc/entropy get 22 sources found forking into background... server starting But when I go to "make

Hi! I have just made the 0.9.0 release of PRNGD available. PRNGD is the Pseudo Random Number Generator Daemon. It has an EGD compatible interface and is designed to provide entropy on systems not having /dev/*random devices. Software supporting EGD style entropy requests are openssh, Apache/mod_ssl, Postfix/TLS... Automatic querying of EGD sockets at fixed locations has been introduced in the

Just tried out ssh in pre13, and still get the EGD problem? :( new-relay:/usr/slocal/src/openssh-1.2pre13> ./ssh -l marc atelier The authenticity of host 'atelier.acadiau.ca' can't be established.

I have a need to have the same OpenSSH binaries run on multiple machines which are administered by different people. That means on Solaris, for example, there will be some with /dev/random, some on which I can run prngd because they'll be installing my binaries as root, and some which will have neither because they will be only installed as non-root. Below is a patch to enable choosing all 3

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Howdy all. I've just released version 0.7 ("the Brown Paper Bag" release) of EGD. The Entropy Gathering Daemon is primarily intended as a source of randomness for GnuPG, for use on systems which lack a /dev/random device. version 0.6, which has been available for about 8 months, had a serious and embarrasing bug in which the gathered

The usual suspects: Solaris 8 gcc 2.95.2 perl 5.60 egd 0.7 openssl 0.95.a openssh 1.2.3 # egd.pl /etc/entropy --- It works the first few minutes and then just stops working. OpenSSH connections started still work, ssh just hangs with a new connection. I've even tried --bottomless; no joy. 0.6 and Solaris 7 worked great. I'm going to try the /dev/random that was mentioned before. Any

There are a couple of issues regarding egd support in OpenSSH. 1) SIGPIPE is not ignored for the master listener daemon. I put the signal() call early on since it needs to be before get_random_bytes() is called but it could also be placed in the EGD version of get_random_bytes(). For some reason, with prngd I am getting SIGPIPE even though the prngd processes is not dying.

EGD 0.7 was released this weekend and I would highly recommend that everyone here that uses EGD upgrades. While doing some research last week I found a typo in the add_entropy() function that prevented any new entropy from being introduced into the system (in other words the entropy pool was a recursive hash of 0's). If the commands return in the same order, then the output bits are in

Hi, We are trying to get OpenSSH-1.2.2 stable release to compile under Solaris 2.3 Sparc. It worked perfect for Solaris 2.5, Solaris 2.5.1, Solaris 7 (All on Sparc) and Linux 2.2.13 Intel x86 OpenSSL installs fine without problem, zlib is installed fine without problems and egd.pl installs fine without problems. These are all the current releases, I can get the version numbers if you need

Hello all, I was finally able to create the OpenSSH package for Solaris 8 10/01. The problem I have now is that I will still need to have entropy ready prior to openssh-3.1p1 package installation. Otherwise there is no entropy pool available (with the new servers) and key generation fails. With the previous versions of openssh, I used SUN's "makeOpenSSHPackage.ksh" script and was

[NOTE: I'm new to this list and this is my first approach to OpenSSH code.] I've enhanced "--with-prngd-port=PORT" flag to accept an optional hostname as in "myhost:myport", e.g.: % ./configure --with-prngd-port=example.com:12345 Although I'm certain that this may cause big trouble if remote gatherer isn't online (ssh will refuse to open any connection) I
