Hi,
Here's the 'fixprogs' perl script that got missed off the 2.1.0p1
distribution. Please put this in your openssh directory, and re-run
'make install'. it doesn't need to be made executable.
For those interested, it runs through all the commands in the
ssh_prng_cmds file and tests if they work (as opposed to 'configure'
merely verifying that the executable exists, as it was before.)
Commands that fail are marked and never run by openssh.
There is primitive measurement of each command's entropy rate as well,
but this may not survive the next release.
Ta,
-Andre'
