I am not sure, but most probably you don't have enough random info. What
you need to do is make sure you run this command from you home directory
(or directory to which you have read/write perms because the command
generates .rnd file which holds some random information).
/path-to-openssl-binary/openssl rand -rand some-file 1024 > /dev/null
some-file: you can use any file (binary or text). this is just to seed
the random number generator, I think. After this, you should have .rnd
file in your home folder. You should no longer get any 'not enough
randomness' errors and such.
