Hi,

in your VE /dev/random is missing, create it with:

# mknod /dev/random c 1 8

It's a self-built OSTEMPLATE, or download one ?

I created one more VPS on same node. When I tried starting httpd
got following errors.

[root@localhost ~]# service httpd start
Starting httpd: Syntax error on line 68 of /etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf:
SSLRandomSeed: source path '/dev/urandom' does not exist

[FAILED]

I did mknod /dev/urandom c 1 9
and it started httpd.

When I rebooted this new VPS. It's also giving the same problem.
sshd dead but subsys locked

Tnx

Yes, if you can run "/usr/sbin/sshd -d" then this should fix.
remove /dev/null
and then: "mknod /dev/null c 1 3"
