SSH and config.....
Hi all!
I'm new to the SSh concept, and i'm supposed to install SSH over 400 servers.
I found out how to generate all the keys and the passphrases ( you'll say that ain't that hard!).
But now, i just can't get the thing to start. I started sshd on both of my test servers, and on one of 'em, i get the following error message:
couldn't read entropy commands file /opt/openssh2/etc/ssh_prng_cmds: No such file or directory. What use is there to this file, and how do i create it?
I have another question, how do i generate the sshd_config file?
I'd be grateful for any help...
Thanx to all.....

ssh-keysign
SSH-KEYSIGN(8) BSD System Manager's Manual SSH-KEYSIGN(8)
NAME
ssh-keysign -- ssh helper program for host-based authentication
SYNOPSIS
ssh-keysign
DESCRIPTION
ssh-keysign is used by ssh(1) to access the local host keys and generate the digital signature required during host-based authentication with
SSH protocol version 2.
ssh-keysign is disabled by default and can only be enabled in the global client configuration file /etc/ssh/ssh_config by setting
EnableSSHKeysign to ``yes''.
ssh-keysign is not intended to be invoked by the user, but from ssh(1). See ssh(1) and sshd(8) for more information about host-based authen-
tication.
FILES
/etc/ssh/ssh_config
Controls whether ssh-keysign is enabled.
/etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key, /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key
These files contain the private parts of the host keys used to generate the digital signature. They should be owned by root, read-
able only by root, and not accessible to others. Since they are readable only by root, ssh-keysign must be set-uid root if host-
based authentication is used.
SEE ALSO
ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1), ssh_config(5), sshd(8)
HISTORY
ssh-keysign first appeared in OpenBSD 3.2.
