Hi Francis, > Has anyone managed to get GnuPG and EGD (the Entropy Gathering Daemon -- > http://egd.sourceforge.net/) to work together under Cygwin? never tried ;-) but it should be possible. Did you read the annoncement concerning gnupg 1.0.7-3?
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2002-08/msg01059.html The relevant part is: * Fixed the use of loadable modules. Now all modules can be loaded with the --load-extension=<modulename> command. The standard build will link rndlinux statically, but if you run $ ./configure --enable-static-rnd=none then also the rndegd random generator modules will be build as a loadable module. Attention! Now you have to call gpg with --load-extension=rnd??? to make it work properly. Actually, I never tried, but it may work. Please let me know if it does.
