Re: entropy gathering daemon

e switches. Got it working. The use case is for chroot'd programs that need it on a filesystem mounted nodev. I sent some patches awhile back to add arc4random_buf as the entropy gathering 'device'. Which I've been using with no problems since. And it's a little faster than going through t
