[freenet-support] Not enought entropy on headless system
I installed today Freenet on a headless Soekris 5501 (Geode I586 compatible processor) running Debian Lenny The node hangs during boot with the message There isn't enough entropy available on your system... Freenet won't start until it can gather enough. and stalls forever; the old find trick doesn't work either. I suppose that Freenet uses /dev/random as entropy source; can I redirect on urandom ?

Many thanks. Marco You could probably do that, but I would recommend against it. Good random numbers important for securing cryptographic applications. My recommendation would be to install something like turbid ( http://www.av8n.com/turbid/ ) to get a secure source of random numbers. (There are a few other programs that do similar things, but turbid is the only one I know of that makes guarantees about the *minimum* entropy content of its output, which is what cryptographic applications care about.)

Hi Evan I perfectly agree with your concern. Apart for the need to have a solution that fits in the Debian architecture, the problem is that Freenet apparently do not allow to choose the entropy source. And worst, the package you suggest uses the audio subsystem, and being the Soekris an headless systes, it is also earless . ;) Many thanks -- +--- http://www.winstonsmith.info ---+ | il Progetto Winston Smith: scolleghiamo il Grande Fratello | | the Winston Smith Project: unplug the Big Brother | | Marco A.

Sorry for the answer, I found the solution myself. It is an interesting issue, worth reading. Geode has an excellent hw RNG, but Debian installs the conventional software one that uses HD, mouse and keyboard. All those entropy sources are not present or doesn't work on Soekris. Installing the Debian package rng-tools installs a daemon that uses Geode RNG and give an excellent entropy source Happy RANDoming ! -- +--- http://www.winstonsmith.info ---+ | il Progetto Winston Smith: scolleghiamo il Grande Fratello | | the Winston Smith Project: unplug the Big Brother | | Marco A.
