Run 'rng-tools' in OpenVZ container

Question

I have a problem with run 'rngd' inside OpenVZ container:

root@server:~# rngd -r /dev/urandom unable to adjust write_wakeup_threshold: Permission denied

Is it possible to run an application in another way?

Thanks to all!

Answer 1

There's only a single kernel in an OpenVZ system, so you would have to run rngd on the host node.
