This is the web site of the "random" DLKM (dynamically loadable kernel module) for HP-UX 11.00. This DLKM provides random numbers to applications through a Linux-compatible "/dev/random" device file.

For more information, read this article.

  The third release of the DLKM.

I received a note from a happy customer who told me that he needed to install Quality Pack QPK1100 before the kernel module would load. Please look here for more information...

Marco Borsani pointed me to a small snag in the "make install" part for those who do not have the HP ANSI C compiler. In case "make install" starts complaining with error messages from the bundled C compiler, execute the following (as root):

# touch *
# make install
