No randomness provider enabled for /dev/random

[Database Administrator]

Hi All,

I just installed OpenSolaris 2008.05 snv_86_rc3 X86 in a virtual
environment (VirtualBox). Following a system reboot, I saw the
following message: "WARNING: No randomness provider enabled for
/dev/random. Use cryptoadm (1M) to enable a provider." I got the
following results from running cryptoadm list:

# cryptoadm list

User-level providers:
Provider: /usr/lib/security/$ISA/pkcs11_kernel.so
Provider: /usr/lib/security/$ISA/pkcs11_softtoken.so

Kernel software providers:
des
aes
arcfour
blowfish
ecc
sha1
sha2
md4
md5
rsa
swrand

Kernel hardware providers:



What magic incantation do I chant now? I have /dev/random and
/dev/urandom. Is that not enough? If I need to provide a crypto
provider: which is the right one?

/dev/random is a link to /dev/devices/pseudo/random@0:random
/dev/urandom is a link to /dev/devices/pseudo/random@0:urandom

Thanks.
