I'm primarily looking for an implementation of an entropy gathering daemon for the windows platform, written in C or some other compiled language, not perl. I'm wondering if anyone has integrated OpenSSL to work with the entropy gathering daemon called Yarrow. http://www.counterpane.com/yarrow.html I'd like to use it to seed OpenSSL on Windows. The neat thing about it is that it seems to use some shared memory technique that reduces (eliminates?) the possibility of the entropy data/seeds getting written to disk, and only exist in ram. If an entropy gathering daemon was used over a TCP/IP socket, would it have a greater possibility of getting swapped to disk? Has anyone implemented a entropy daemon on windows that uses Yarrow internally? Has anyone modified OpenSSL to directly support Yarrow? Any other ideas on providing better random seeds for OpenSSL on a single user windows machine?
