Well, the no-brainer solution is to make some file available at `/dev/urandom', like it is commonly done for `/dev/random'. Or you install one of the existing random translators on these nodes, see <http://hurd.gnufans.org/bin/view/Hurd/RandomDevice>. Note that I also just updated this very page, for example I attached a ``mbox.bz2 containing all the emails concerning this topic which I was able to gather from public archives'' and added linked to ``Sune Kirkeby's incomplete port of the Linux /dev/{,u}random device driver''.
