Since this platform does not have /dev/random I needed to install prngd
first before OpenSSH. After trying to install openssh I was getting
"Connection refused" related to the prngd socket. For whatever reason
openssh was only looking for the prngd pool at /dev/egd-pool. I could
not find a way to change this in the openssh source files. To fix this I
had to do the following:
1) Edit rc.prngd here:
%common
prngd_pidfile="/openpkg/var/prngd/prngd.pid"
#prngd_socket="/openpkg/var/prngd/prngd.socket"
prngd_socket="/dev/egd-pool"
2) Renamed rc.prngd to rc.101prngd (needs to start ahead of openssh - is
there a better way?)
3) Removed IBM rpm of prngd and old /dev/egd-pool
4) Start prngd then install openssh.
