Thanks for all the replies.
After change the value of net.inet.ip.random_id to 0, sshd successfully
create host keys in /etc/ssh.
I m not sure whether the file entropy file was created in / before the
change.
In my kernel configuration, I commented out the option RANDOM_IP_ID,
because it was said that in 5.3 random_id can be configured in
sysctl.conf file, so I assign 1 to net.inet.ip.random_id. I m not
whether this is randomly happened. What will be happened if not compile
RANDOM_IP_ID in the kernel or assign 0 to net.inet.ip.random_id in
sysctl.conf file?
Any idea?
Thanks
Sam
