imp 2004-11-10 17:25:49 UTC FreeBSD src repository Modified files: lib/libc/stdlib rand.3 Log: sranddev() is not magic pixie dust. While it gives a good random seed, the random number generator rand(3) still sucks and is unlikely sufficient for crypto use. Correct what appears to be a cut and paste error from the srandomdev() man page. Submitted by: Ben Mesander Revision Changes Path 1.15 +4 -2 src/lib/libc/stdlib/rand.3
