If you wish to fix Solaris 8 to use /dev/random use the following Sun patch available thru Sunsolve
dev random patch number 112438-01 >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 07/01/02 01:05PM >>> Cool, thanks!... So I've done that, I needed to use the make certificate instead of the openssh commands because of the lack of a /dev/random on Solaris 8 (I don't know why make is able to do make it happen when I can't). Anyway, each time I run it it generates a new server.key file, I need to keep each of these right?...perhaps name them based on the virtual host each are for?
