[fetchmail]SSL with HP-UX

2001-05-03 00:05:41
Hello friends,
 We are trying to run POP3 over SSL on HPu-UX 11.0 with openssl package. Since 
there were no random device generator
(/dev/urandom), it was refusing to connect. Ultimately we suceeded in the 
following maaner. We ran EGD (Thru some perl
module which we are using for some other purpose). Then in driver.c code in the 
function do_session just before when it
was calling  SSLOpen() function, we added the line RAND_egd("/etc/entropy").
We even tried with ocotillo-0.3 package. It creates the /dev/urandom device. 
But we were unable to fetchmail over SSL.

According to OpenSSL package, if it is not running then something is broken in 
the package.
I don't know where is the problem ----> In the code or in the way we tried to 
connect it.

Regards
Rohit
