I´am having some problems with ssh-rand-helper processes. I have about 15 processes sleeping.
ps -ef | grep rand
mfra 4123 1 0 Nov 24 ? 0:00 ssh-rand-helper
mfra 13466 1 0 Nov 26 ? 0:00 ssh-rand-helper

It seems to be piling up rand-helper processes. Someone knows why this happens? Is a Solaris 7 OS.
Thanks.
