If standard output is a tty, -.Nm -will instead print the seed in hexidecimal format unless told otherwise. -.Pp -.Nm -will by default gather random numbers from the system commands listed -in -.Pa /etc/ssh/ssh_prng_cmds . -The output of each of the commands listed will be hashed and used to -generate a random seed for the calling program. -.Nm -will also store seed files in -.Pa ~/.ssh/prng_seed -between executions. -.Pp -Alternately, -.Nm -may be configured at build time to collect random numbers from a -EGD/PRNGd server via a unix domain or localhost tcp socket. -.Pp -This program is not intended to be run by the end-user, so the few -commandline options are for debugging purposes only. -.Bl -tag -width Ds -.It Fl b Ar bytes -Specify the number of random bytes to include in the output. -.It Fl x -Output a hexidecimal instead of a binary seed. -.It Fl X -Force output of a binary seed, even if standard output is a tty -.It Fl v -Turn on debugging message.
