I've been seeing the Dovecot/SSL/Fedora 1 problem. I have a dovecot server which tends to die at least once a day, with messages like these :- May 24 13:44:44 mail pop3-login: RAND_bytes() failed: error:24064064:random number generator:SSLEAY_RAND_BYTES:PRNG not seeded May 24 13:44:44 mail dovecot: Login process died too early - shutting down I noticed Timo's email about this at:

I woke up this morning and my dovecot server had died with the following in the dovecot.log file: pop3-login: Jan 23 10:23:08 Fatal: RAND_bytes() failed: error:24064064:random number generator:SSLEAY_RAND_BYTES:PRNG not seeded dovecot: Jan 23 10:23:08 Error: Login process died too early - shutting down dovecot: Jan 23 10:23:08 Error: child 16321 (login) returned error 89 How can I find out

Dovecot died twice today. This was in the maillog: Apr 9 17:50:27 ciscy pop3-login: RAND_bytes() failed: error:24064064:random number generator:SSLEAY_RAND_BYTES:PRNG not seeded Apr 9 17:50:27 ciscy dovecot: Login process died too early - shutting down I think I can cause it to happen reliably and I'm asking for other to test this scenario: Open several terminal windows. In each, type

This morning dovecot died with the following messages in the errorlog. Any solution to this problem? I am using Fedora Core 1 on a SMP i686 box. imap-login: Mar 30 08:08:00 Fatal: RAND_bytes() failed: error:24064064:random number generator:SSLEAY_RAND_BYTES:PRNG not seeded dovecot: Mar 30 08:08:00 Error: Login process died too

Hi, Dovecot (pre-compiled version of Fedora Core 1, configured for Maildir) is running fine for me since a few days.

Aloha. The current CVS snapshot and 1.0-test14 will not build on Solaris 8 because it does not provide a sendfile() funtion. It just has sendfilev(). Solaris 9 has sendfile(), though. Using the old sendfile-util.c from 1.0-test1 and setting HAVE_SOLARIS_SENDFILEV instead of HAVE_LINUX_SENDFILE in config.h works. Greetings, Andy.

Hi, I'm trying to install dovecot-0.99.9-test6 with gcc-3.2.2 under AIX (4.3.3) and found some problems. First, I need to define _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED to 1 in src/lib/fdpass.c and src/auth/mycrypt.c or undefine it to compile successfully. When I define _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED to 1, I get the following error while connecting: dovecot: Apr 21 17:56:44 Info: Dovecot starting up imap-login:

Dear list users, I have a problem when joining an Active Directory domain. In this project we have one Main Dc in capital city and one read only dc in one remote city. We join to main DC succesfully. However, we can not join to local Replicate (rodc14). We are using this method for winbind / squid ntlm authentication purposes not a full samba server. ?nternet conection is not fast and we have

Hi, Yesterday I tried to replace the system openssl in a gentoo system with libressl. With openssh an interesting issue popped up: * RAND_bytes in libressl calls arc4random * arc4random is a compat function both in openssh and libressl * arc4random from openssh uses RAND_bytes So what's happening is a recursion. arc4random wants to use RAND_bytes and RAND_bytes wants to use arc4random. The

When i send more than one messages shortly after the other, my log (/var/spool/asterisk/sms ) looks like this and only two of four messages arrive. What am i doing wrong ? I am using an AVM B1 PCI with chan-capi and 1.4.4. and also, when sending with smsq -x only two of the messages are handled. (i thought, asterisk itself handles the queues ? ) Here the log: 2007-07-09T15:04:14 YOM04 0 -

Hello, I have been doing some looking at openssl 0.9.7 and openssh3.5p1 and found a minor descrepancy. RAND_bytes() is called around line 69 of openbsd-compat/bsd-arc4random.c. It checks to see if the return is not zero. The RAND_bytes function can also return -1, too. All the code in openssl uses <=0 for the test rather than !. Best Regards, Steve Grubb

Dear All, I am trying to create a empty structure that I want to fill gradually through the code. I want to use something like rbind to create the basic structure first. I am looking for a possibility to do an rbind where the columns names dont match fully (but the missing columns can be defaulted to either zero or n/a) (my actual data has a lot of columns). Please see the data frames below I

Hi, dovecot tries to use OpenSSL's PRNG to generate random numbers if there is no /dev/urandom found. Unfortunately, it is flawed in its present form, since the PRNG is not seeded before RAND_bytes() is called in src/lib/randgen.c (on systems which have /dev/urandom, OpenSSL automatically seeds its PRNG from the urandom device). Here's a patch to address this issue: it tries to seed

Now that ssh-rand-helper has been segregated into a separate program, I'd like to revisit an old question about its entropy gathering. - would it be desirable to make it possible for ssh-rand-helper to fall back to external commands if PRNGD cannot be reached, instead of choosing one or the other at compile time? - When using PRNGD, the program gets 48 bytes of entropy from PRNGD,
