Please disregard apparently Openssl does not see the /dev/random in my chroot 
directory as a valid random provider. So its off to google and oracle to see 
what it will take to make a valid /dev/random available from within the jail.

Subject: Openssl issue

I am running Solaris 10 and I downloaded bind 9.12.3 today and compiled it 
using the enable threads option, the prefix=/ option and the --without-gost 
option just as I have in the past when compiling 9.10. The compilation seems to 
go well but when I run named with -t /nithr -u nithr named fails to start and I 
get daemon.crit openssl_link.c:296: fatal error:and Openssl pseudorandom number 
generator cannot be initialized (see the 'PRNG not seeded message in the 
Openssl FAQ). Then exiting (due to fatal error in library).

My chrooted directory does contain /dev/random

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to overcome this issue?
