I am getting the error: "Couldn't obtain random bytes (error 604389476)"
from my openssh daemon.
Could somone explain what this error means, and what I might do to stop
it reoccuring? I get it after about 4 days uptime.
The box in question is a dual processor Sparc20, running Redhat 6.2 Sparc
Linux (stock Redhat 2.2.14-5.0smp kernel). SSH version is OpenSSH_2.5.2p2.
Apologies if this is the wrong forum for such issues. I have posted this
in comp.security.ssh with no reply.
Jon
