The alternative is to invent entropy that isn't there, and I don't particularly like that option. I wish the kernel would be more aggressive in grabbing entropy, but there's a lot of fear that e.g. network entropy can be predicted. A box without hard drive and keyboard/mouse is pretty much doomed as it is. Maybe the kernel should generate pseudo-random hard drive seeks when entropy runs out and disks are otherwise idle. /Benny -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
