System Version: FreeBSD 4.4 RELEASE Prioryty: low (information) What is the problem: the /dev/urandom after instaling FreeBSD 4.4 from CD has acces rights set to crw------. This is the problem when you try to ssh to another computer (as plain user) ssh write following errors: ssh: no RSA support in libssl and libcrypto. See ssl(8). Disabling protocol version 1 DH_generate_key its hard to find (for a dumb user like me) that this is the problem with /dev/urandom access rights. When rights are set to crw-r--r-- the ssh work perfect. I think urandom is used to generate keys when you connect to another host at firs time (or something like this). Cure: changing rights to "r" in /dev/urandom When error ocures: New FreeBSD 4.4 instaled from dowloaded iso images. It doesnt happen when system is updated to 4.4 from previous versions (from CD or cvsup) Jaroslaw (Jerry) Micota PS. Great job!!!
