I have a DS20 running tru64 unix 5.1b.
Several of my applications I am running are hardcoded to use
/dev/random. I need them to use /dev/urandom because the performance
is unacceptable otherwise. If I move /dev/random out of the way and
link /dev/random to /dev/urandom my applications run fine but next time
I try to reboot the server it fails when coming back up because it
looks for /dev/random to be the real device and not a link to
/dev/urandom.
Anyway to make it not check for /dev/random to be the usual /dev/random
device?
