ssh install and config problem

[rgraf]

Hello,
I have never installed ssh on an Openserver system before and am having some problems. I have read through some of the threads but am still having problems.

Some Details,
Openserver 5.0.6 system. Components installed in this order 1)zlib v 1.1.4 2)prngd v 0.9.6 3) ssh v 3.4p1 All downloaded from sco's web site. Prngd is running (checked w ps -ef |grep prngd) but when I try to start ssh (ssh enable or ssh start command) I get the following error messages:
-------------------------------------
Couldn't connect to PRNGD socket "/usr/local/var/prngd/prngd-pool": No such file
or directory
Entropy collection failed
ssh-rand-helper child produced insufficient data
#
------------------------------------
I did some digging around and this "prngd-pool" file is not in /usr/local/var/prngd/ but in /usr/local/etc/prngd/

There are no man pages for prngd (man prngd). There must be a config file to specify the location of this but I am stumped.

Would appreciate any help !
Thanks,

Rob
