Maybe don't. When Bruce Schneier last put his hand to designing an RNG he concluded that estimating entropy is doomed. I don't think he would object to some coarse order-of-magnitude confirmation that there is entropy coming in, but I think trying to meter entropy-in against entropy-out will either leave you starved or fooled. -kb _______________________________________________ The cryptography mailing list cryptography@metzdowd.com http://www.metzdowd.com/mailman/listinfo/cryptography
