Hi everyone,

>From the openssl tips doc it said the power-on self-tests need to be run
when the system comes up.

If I have multiple applications which uses the openssl crypto functions
(under fips mode), does each of this application need to run the power-on
self-tests?

Also if the openssl fips modules are installed on a Linux server, what is
the best way to run the power-on self-tests (e.g. run within init.d script
or upstart scripts or run by a daemon)?

Thanks,
Rich
