These are good thoughts - that's what makes this so weird, as I am running standard Debian "testing", and I've got both /dev/random and /dev/urandom. I tried digging into the source of Apache to see if there's a nuance to the call, but I don't know enough about Apache to even find the error code (which I would have thought would be pretty easy, but no.) My temporary work-around has been to change my whole webserver, and got nginx installed and configured for all of my domains, but it's a very brute force approach, and took a couple of hours, as I don't really know nginx. --- Post to this mailing list [email protected] Unsubscribe from this mailing list https://gtalug.org/mailman/listinfo/talk
