If one didn't log on via normal workstation login to the 
machine, his/her user hive isn't loaded to the registry.
The current implementation of /dev/random calls the Crypto
API so that a user specific key container is used. This
fails if the user hive isn't loaded.

To get rid of that problem, the Crypto API provides a
mechanism to use a so called `machine keyset'. I have
just patched the /dev/random implementation to use that
machine keyset instead of the user specific keyset.

That will be part of the next developer snapshot and
of the next net release.
