generating gpg keys
On generating gpg keys, how can one go about getting enough entropy on
one's own machine? I tried generating it on a server I have co-located
with my ISP, so at least it would have some network traffic and some
web serving as entropy but that will still not enough; 14 bytes short
once, 123 the next. I don't think it would ever be possible on my
home machine. va & master don't have gpg installed, and on the Solaris
undergrad server at university, gpg is unable to lock memory hence
the key will be insecure; none of these three are good places to generate
a key anyway. Suggestions?
thanks,
Hamish
