Hello Misc, 

I have a web program that attempts to access /dev/urandom from within the
/var/www chroot.  Based on archive searches and googling, I've removed 
the nodev flag from that mount and have created the random devices in 
/var/www/dev/* 

This allows the program to work, but I'm wondering if there is a better
way to do this that doesn't involve removing the nodev setting from
/var.  

Would it be preferable to use a language function for getting pseudo 
random bytes instead of relying on the device?

Thanks for your time,
gabe.
