I installed apache with SSL. After generating the self-signed key. I can't
start apache. Following is the error message in error_log.

[Thu Oct 03 12:53:41 2002] [warn] Init: PRNG still contains not sufficient
entropy!
[Thu Oct 03 12:53:41 2002] [error] Init: Failed to generate temporary 512
bit RSA private key
Configuration Failed

Does that mean that the random files that I picked were not big or unique
enough? What will be the proper file on AIX?

Thank you very much.
