My dropbear sshd has been complaining about a lack of entropy in Debian... hasn't seemed to cause any serious problems, just a few extra log entrys when I try to login. I suppose if there were more ssh users than just myself though it might become a problem. Though looking closer at the logs, it appears that this could be causing some logins to take around 10sec from the point of the entropy message being generated, to the point of successful pubkey message... not good :/
