Thanks for the explanation.

BTW, I get around worries with NSA "intrusion" with my comms by generating 10 x 2048 bit DH params on different machines and splicing 10 randomly chosen parts together to make up the final one. I use multiple coin tosses to binary search my start points. I also regenerate the whole keys daily.

Strong crypto is easy if you only just apply a little lateral thought. I don't bother with insecure USB devices for my TRNG: I have hired 10,000 Mechanical Turks to toss coins and I scrape the results straight into the input for my mechturk_entropyd.

Cheers
Jon
