Cryptographic software needs a source of unpredictable data to work
correctly. Many open source operating systems provide a "randomness
device" that serves this purpose. On other systems, applications have
to call the RAND_add() or RAND_seed() function with appropriate data
before generating keys or performing public key encryption.
(These functions initialize the pseudo-random number generator, PRNG.)
Some broken applications do not do this. As of version 0.9.5, the
OpenSSL functions that need randomness report an error if the random
number generator has not been seeded with at least 128 bits of
randomness. If this error occurs, please contact the author of the
application you are using. It is likely that it never worked
correctly. OpenSSL 0.9.5 and later make the error visible by refusing
to perform potentially insecure encryption.

If you are using Solaris 8, you can add /dev/urandom and /dev/random
devices by installing patch 112438 (Sparc) or 112439 (x86), which are
available via the Patchfinder at <URL: http://sunsolve.sun.com>
(Solaris 9 includes these devices by default). For /dev/random support
for earlier Solaris versions, see Sun's statement at
<URL: http://sunsolve.sun.com/pub-cgi/retrieve.pl?doc=fsrdb/27606&zone_32=SUNWski>

For Solaris 2.6, Tim Nibbe <tnibbe@sprint.net> and others have suggested
installing the SUNski package from Sun patch 105710-01 (Sparc) which
adds a /dev/random device and make sure it gets used, usually through
$RANDFILE. There are probably similar patches for the other Solaris
versions. An official statement from Sun with respect to /dev/random
support can be found at
http://sunsolve.sun.com/pub-cgi/retrieve.pl?doc=fsrdb/27606&zone_32=SUNWski
However, be warned that /dev/random is usually a blocking device, which
may have some effects on OpenSSL.
A third party /dev/random solution for Solaris is available at
