Subject: Remove the call to RAND_load_file().
X-Git-Tag: release-1.0.36~11
X-Git-Url: https://tinc-vpn.org/git/browse?a=commitdiff_plain;h=14abf170c2b39cd45fce621bdd0c905f444f5bd1;p=tinc

Remove the call to RAND_load_file().

It might have been necessary for some very old version of OpenSSL, but
the currently minimum required version for tinc will do a proper
initialization of its PRNG automatically. LibreSSL of course does the
right thing too, and its RAND_load_file() is just a dummy.
