[users@httpd] rand file always 0 byte

I installed openssl  openssl-0.9.7d  egd-0.8  prng-3.0.2  gcc.3.3. on AIX 5.1   and running the EGD , I never found or not able to generate the  random number my openssl.rnd is always with 0 byte 
 
So while trying to create the private key i am always getting error :PRNG not seeded:md 
 
echo $RANDFILE
/home/eagimgr/sn8421/openssl.rnd
   ps -ef  | grep egd.pl
  sn8421  647406 1179746   1 11:02:16  pts/2  0:00 grep egd.pl
  sn8421 1146950       1   0   Jul 15      -  1:01 perl -w /home/eagimgr/sn8421/perl5/bin/egd.pl /home/eagimgr/sn8421/.gnupg/entropy
