75.Sh DESCRIPTION
76.Fn RAND_file_name
77returns a default path for the random seed file.
78.Fa buf
79points to a buffer of size
80.Fa num
81in which to store the filename.
82If
83.Fa num
84is too small for the path name, an error occurs.
85.Pp
86.Fn RAND_load_file
87used to allow for the state of the random number generator to be
88controlled by external sources.
89It is kept for ABI compatibility but is no longer functional, and should
90not be used in new programs.
91.Pp
92.Fn RAND_write_file
93writes a number of random bytes (currently 1024) to file
94.Fa filename .
95.Sh RETURN VALUES
96.Fn RAND_load_file
97returns
98.Fa max_bytes ,
99or a bogus positive value if
100.Fa max_bytes
101is -1.
102.Pp
103.Fn RAND_write_file
104returns the number of bytes written, or a number less than or equal
105to 1 if an error occurs.
106.Pp
107.Fn RAND_file_name
108returns a pointer to
109.Fa buf
110on success or
111.Dv NULL
112on error.
