Small improvements and fixes to urandom.

on solaris7/sparc this device doesn't exists i can use EGD but he very big (perl script!) - in memory it take about 4mb! apache use the same! why ssh1.27 doesn't requre /dev/urandom on solaris? what alternatives exists?

If you execute cat /dev/urandom at the xm console of a guest domain, it will spew garbage forever. Attempts to run xm destroy on it simply hang. _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

Hello, Being new to the list i hope this question has not been asked before.... As you might know Solaris 9 supportes /dev/random and /dev/urandom bij default and earlier version need to install a patch to have these devices.... But the configuration script under Solaris (Sparc/X86) does not test the existing of the devices... is this to be known as a error/bug? and is there a patch? thanks --

I feel very silly asking this, because I saw the answer to this question one time and can't remember what it was. OpenSSH uses /dev/urandom or /dev/random which Solaris does not have (verified with a call to the Sun software folks). How do I make OpenSSH happy with a Solaris substitute for /etc/urandom? Thanks Tim Nibbe Supervisor of System Administration Sprint IP Dial Support Services

if i want to learn more about implementing a /dev/urandom, where would be a good place to start? thanks, wendy -- wendy palm Cray OS Sustaining Engineering, Cray Inc. wendyp at cray.com, 651-605-9154

This one-line patch prevents OpenSSH from depleting entropy unnecessarily from /dev/urandom when the OpenSSL library acquires its own entropy. Without this patch OpenSSH opens /dev/urandom and reads 32 bytes, and then OpenSSL opens it again and reads an additional 20. -- Dan Astoorian People shouldn't think that it's better to have Sysadmin, CSLab loved and

As it turns out, you don't need to configure OpenSSL 0.9.6c in any special way to have support for /dev/urandom - it automatically tries to use it if it exists on a Unix system. So, I compiled the current snapshot using "--with-rand-helper=no" and everything appears to build and work fine on Solaris 8. Ed Ed Phillips <ed at udel.edu> University of Delaware (302) 831-6082

I am trying to wrap the updating of two models in a transaction and when the transaction fails it is not rolling back. My method is : def update_attributes(user,params) @user = user @company = user.company begin User.transaction do @user.update_attributes!(params[:user]) @company.update_attributes!(params[:company]) end true rescue false

Hi, I maintain Kodi[1] in RPMFusion[2] and the latest version of Kodi, 18.0, is crashing when trying to browse the SMB network. The previous version, 17.x, worked fine. The backtrace shows that Samba was not able to open /dev/urandom, which can't be true and must be masking another issue. The issue occurs on any Fedora 28 or 29 system (multiple user reports[3]). SELinux is disabled and

I posted some questions a few months back and received lots of great help in getting my dovecot/postfix/LDAP setup working. Initially, I ran into the pipe failed too many open files error. I am running this setup on OpenBSD/sparc64 4.1-stable and so I put dovecot in its own class and upped the maxfiles setting for that class. This was back with dovecot 1.0 and everything worked fine. I

I have a new centos 6 install. Randomly i get out of memory messages and my ssh file transfer dies. I have tried this in filezilla as well as winscp. I have disabled motd in ssh and i also had entropy problems so i enacted rngd -r /dev/urandom -o /dev/random but did not stop the out of memory errors. I am seeing the below in the logs. It only occurs during ssh file transfers. Feb 28

Hi, We are trying to use OCFS2 as VM storage. After running into problems with qemu's disk_mirror feature we now think there could be a problem with the FIEMAP ioctl in OCFS2. As far as I understand the situation looks like this: Qemu inquiries the FS if the given section of the image is already allocated via the FIEMAP ioctl [1] It especially checks if fm_mapped_extents is greater 0.

I've installed Sun's SUNWski package on Solaris 8 (32-bit) that provides a /dev/random interface. It appears to as cat'ing it gives me a bunch of well, random data. However, when I ran my configure, it gives me the WARNING.RND message to the effect that I'm using the built-in. I've seen allusions on this list to building openssl with to get random support, so I rebuilt it
