- Edit the PRNGD configuration file ${PKG_SYSCONFDIR}/prngd.conf
|
|
(see ${SHAREDIR}/doc/prngd)
|
|
|
|
- Add entries to /etc/rc.local for PRNGD to start on system boot.
|
|
|
|
-- Regarding entropy gathering commands in prngd.conf:
|
|
|
|
The "rate" represents the number of bits of usuable entropy per byte of
|
|
command output. Adjust the rates as you see fit, but be conservative.
|
|
|
|
Depending on the usage of your system, some commands may not produce
|
|
output that varies significantly over time. Keep in mind the usage of
|
|
such commands will not produce considerably random data. Use commands
|
|
whose output will gather decent entropy.
|
|
|
|
- Please browse the manual and the PRNGD home page for more information.
