[SunHELP] ssl problems - Creating Certs

[Dave Lewis]

I've installed the following packages to get sshd to work ..

egd-0.8-sol7-sparc-local
perl-5.6.1-sol7-sparc-local
openssh-3.0.2p1-sol7-sparc-local
prngd-0.9.23-sol7-sparc-local
openssl-0.9.6b-sol7-sparc-local
zlib-1.1.3-sol7-sparc-local

and then I went to install Ben's true apache-ssl, which I finally got 
compiled but
when I go to make the cert's I get this.....


/usr/local/ssl/bin/openssl req -new > new.cert.csr
Using configuration from /usr/local/ssl/openssl.cnf
unable to load 'random state'
This means that the random number generator has not been seeded
with much random data.

I red the faq but I'm still lost.. I thought prngd did the random 
stuff.  and I can't find a working patch for solaris 7
to get this working.

Has anyone hit this and possibly could send me the patch that I apparently 
need to get the stuff working.

Any help would be appreciated.
