Make sure you have told FreeBSD to collect randomness info from its peripherals. Put this in /etc/rc.conf: rand_irqs="5 10 13" Replace the numbers with the IRQs of your disk and network devices (you can get these from dmesg), and reboot. -- Dan Nelson [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
