++ 17/04/01 22:56 +0200 - James Greenfield: | Any attempt to generate a keypair results in a message to the effect of "Not | enough random bytes available". See rndcontrol(8), you can help generate entropy by using interrupts. You can also set rand_irqs to a space-delimited list of IRQs to feed to rndcontrol at boot. -pete -- Pete Fritchman <petef@databits.net> Databits Network Services, Inc. <http://databits.net>; finger petef@databits.net for PGP key To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
