I've not heard back from you in a while so I'm going to place this into Awaiting Response status.

It will reopen when you respond.

Hi Evangelos,

Unfortunately the BDS software is only provided for Ubuntu (its mentioned on the download page - many, including me, missed it because its not listed anywhere else) so unfortunately this wouldn't be considered a bug.

In saying that, I just spun up a CentOS VPS and it worked out of the box so I'm not sure if my VPS provider has made changes or your CentOS image is different to mine but it should work. If you want to provide details on how you ran into the issue we can look for a resolution, were you using CentOS Linux or CentOS Live?

First glance differences would be that you're running a significantly older version of OpenSSL than Ubuntu. Ubuntu runs 1.1.1 by default so an upgrade might solve your issue.
