It is bad form to use /dev/random for non-cryptographic entropy needs since it blocks; /dev/urandom should be used instead since when it runs out of entropy it just generates slightly less random numbers than it otherwise would. Since we have to map the file anyway, we can try mapping /dev/random to /dev/urandom. If that works, we can set up the containers so their /dev/random is really /dev/urandom and hope no one ever tries to generate keys on them. -- Benji York -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~yellow Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~yellow More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
