Oh, nice to know.

If I create a link it does work.

There should be some hint somewhere what the egd path should look like
(or it should be configurable or something).  The egd package doesn't
recommend one of the above paths and so I made up one myself. And
reading through the RAND_egd manpage isn't so obvious either... ;)




Thanks again,
