If I recall, apache on sun boxen requires some additional work to get
/dev/urandome<random> PRNG to work ccorrectly.  This is a common question,
and is other covered in the archives, or might well be in the FAQ.

If this is incorrect, or not the issue at hand, others will step in to
spank me into clued space <smile>.


Thanks,

Ron DuFresne
