RAND_file_name() generates a default path for the random seed
file. B<buf> points to a buffer of size B<num> in which to store the
-filename. The seed file is $RANDFILE if that environment variable is
-set, $HOME/.rnd otherwise. If $HOME is not set either, or B<num> is
-too small for the path name, an error occurs.

+
+On all systems, if the environment variable B<RANDFILE> is set, its
+value will be used as the seed file name.

+Otherwise, the file is called ".rnd", found in platform dependent locations:

+If C<$HOME> (on non-Windows and non-VMS system) is not set either, or
+B<num> is too small for the path name, an error occurs.
RAND_load_file() reads a number of bytes from file B<filename> and
adds them to the PRNG. If B<max_bytes> is non-negative,
