Description
EB_CLIENT_LINUX_KERNEL
NAME
eb_client_linux_kernel - send entropy data to /dev/random
DESCRIPTION
eb_client_linux_kernel
v1.0, (C) 2009-2012 by folkert@vanheusden.com To keep the
entropy buffer of the local linux kernel filled-up, start
client_linux_kernel as a root user. If you want the kernel
buffers to be filled much earlier (the default is when it
only has 128 bits left), then write a new value to:
"/proc/sys/kernel/random/write_wakeup_threshold".
E.g. 512.
-i host eb-host to connect to
-l file log to file ’file’
-s log to syslog
-n do not fork
-P file file to write the PID to
-X file file to read the password from
