EGD is a permanently running process, you start it with the name of
the socket file to use, e.g.
/path/to/egd.pl /var/run/egd-pool

As you don't have superuser privileges, you cannot create the
communication socket at those locations OpenSSL will automatically
query (this is intentional behaviour to make sure, that no
"fake EGD" can be introduced by a malicious user). However: if
you compile OpenSSL yourself, you can simply modify the
locations in openssl/e_os.h and recompile OpenSSL.
