PUTTY.RND

[muxcc]

PuTTY also requires a random number seed file, to improve the unpredictability of randomly chosen data needed as part of the SSH cryptography. This is stored by default in a file called PUTTY.RND; this is stored by default in the ‘Application Data’ directory, or failing that, one of a number of fallback locations. If you want to change the location of the random number seed file, you can put your chosen pathname in the Registry, at

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SimonTatham\PuTTY\RandSeedFile

-- Putty Portable MUST keep this file inside its own directories!
