NAME

       eb_client_egd - export entropy data as egd server

DESCRIPTION

       eb_client_egd  v1.0,  (C)  2009-2012 by folkert@vanheusden.com Egd-clients can use the /tmp/egd.sock unix
       domain socket. This should work with at least OpenSSL: start eb_client_egd  with  one  of  the  following
       parameters:  -d  /var/run/egd-pool  or  -d /dev/egd-pool or -d /etc/egd-pool or -d /etc/entropy To verify
       that client_egd functions, run: "openssl rand -rand  /var/run/egd-pool  -out  /tmp/bla  10".   It  should
       return  something  like "255 semi-random bytes loaded" where "255" should be > 0. If it is zero, check if
       the current user has enough rights to access the /var/run/egd-pool file.

       -i host   eb-host to connect to

       -d file   UNIX-domain socket to listen on

       -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
