   It does not exist as a stand alone executable under the name 'rand'.   
   As you can see from the 'rand' man page, 'rand' is a subcommand of the   
   openssl command:   
      
   SYNOPSIS   
          openssl rand [-help] [-out file] [-rand file...]  [-writerand file]   
          [-base64] [-hex] num
