Hi Andy,
Thanks for that, I didn't know about entropy servers till I read your wiki
link - it turns out entropy available on my system was dropping to ~170 with
only one user on my site! - I have added the entropy server now and it never
seems to drop below ~3400.
Thanks,
Phil

Hi,
entropy.lon.bitfolk.com [212.13.194.102] has been renumbered to
85.119.80.215. If you're making use of our free entropy service[1] then
you may be referring to this host by IP address in your
configuration[2].
Use of the entropy service is not configured by default, so if you
don't know what I'm talking about then you most likely don't have
anything to change.
The old IP address will continue to respond until Sunday 30th
October 2011, at which point we will be taking it out of service.
If you're currently referring to it by IP address then you should
change to the host name now.
A summary of all renumberings currently in progress can be found
here:

If you have any questions, please reply to the list or to
support(a)bitfolk.com.
Cheers,
Andy
