[OpenSIPS-Devel] [ opensips-Bugs-3178281 ] Srand in b2b_entities

[Anca Vamanu]

Hi Olivier,

You are right, srandom is not used right there.
However, we want to take out that part from there, not use srand anymore 
and extend another mechanism for getting unique values that is now used 
for top hiding, to other scenarios also. Now for top hiding the from_tag 
is computed from 4 values taken from the message - callid, fromtag, ruri 
and via branch.
I will implement this and take out the random from there next week.

Thanks and regards,
