I use the box a home VPN gateway with max 3 users at the same time, so througput is not an issue. However, according to the manpage I can switch to the /dev/urandom RNG, while configuring the "entropy pool" with the $rand_irqs in /etc/rc.conf. Can someone please tell me how to switch to /dev/urandom?
