Re: Entropy for ssh

[Derek L Davies <ddavies@ddavies.net>]

I posted the following earlier today.  Hopefully we're closer to
having an entropy device now.  Like it says, if anyone would like to
build it on their machine and run either or both of the example
kernels that would be helpful testing.

Thanks,
Derek

I put up a page with a patch that adds the Linux 2.2.12 entropy driver
to the OSKit St. Patrick's day release:

  http://www.ddavies.net/oskit-entropy/index.html

Please try it out if you can.  Any feedback would be appreciated.

(Also, I have random patches for building on NetBSD 1.5.3 that I'll
send along soon).

Thanks,
Derek
