Hello all,

        I've installed OpenSSH 2.9p1 on a Solaris 7 machine.  No problems
during the install, however, when I try to start up sshd I get the following
message...( this is truncated output from the /usr/local/sbin/sshd -f
/usr/local/etc/sshd_config -d -d -d command )

...
debug3: Reading output from 'tail -200 /var/adm/messages'
debug3: Time elapsed: 10 msec
debug3: Got 0.18 bytes of entropy from 'tail -200 /var/adm/messages'
debug1: Seeded RNG with 35 bytes from programs
debug1: Seeded RNG with 3 bytes from system calls
bad addr or host: :: (no address associated with hostname.)
debug1: Calling cleanup 0x54b84(0x0)
debug1: writing PRNG seed to file //.ssh/prng_seed


        I'm stumped as to what to do about that error message....it's looks
like the daemon is gathering entropy and dies on a bad system call, but I
don't know what to do about it.  Any help would be just great.

TIA,

Ed Bonner
