Hmmm... SUNWski installs fine for me on Solaris 8. My Jumpstart setup
installs Secure Shell, which needs /dev/random. It just works. I
suppose I'll have to think of something else if Solaris 9 ever happens.
For systems that don't have /dev/random, prngd seems to be the current
recommended solution.
