Systemd and predictable SSH host keys on raspbian

• yrro 11y ago
  "Systemd and"..? That is not the original title, and I don't see how this issue relates to systemd in particular (/etc/init.d/urandom performs the same job under sysvinit).

    I am speculating that with systemd's parallel booting, the key generation unit gets started before the random seeding unit has gotten done. End result is that what was to be random is ends up being deterministic (because systemd boot is inherently non-deterministic, natch).

  Systemd referenced in link to flame war about how to submit patches. Hint: use text patches not zip-blobs
