I cannot use rndcontrol, and as a result, I'm severely entropy challenged. >How-To-Repeat: rndcontrol -s 21 (or some higher number) >Fix: Its unclear to me as to whether the problem is in rndcontrol itself or the kernel interface it uses. In any case, I'm loath to touch it for fear of breaking things, or interfering with the inclusion of yarrow. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
