Hi
On my FreeBSD 5.2.1-R-p5 I have problems with /usr/libexec/save-entropy
in cron. The error message says:
/etc/rc.conf: cannot create /etc/rc.conf: Permission denied

my /etc/rc.conf file permissions:
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  2,2K 20 Kwi 16:23 /etc/rc.conf*

my /etc/crontab:
# Save some entropy so that /dev/random can re-seed on boot.
#*/11   *       *       *       *       operator /usr/libexec/save-entropy

What shoud I change for /usr/libexec/save-entropy to work properly? For
now I`ve switched it off. Please advice.
