.rnd file in / with lp group?

I seem to have a .rnd file in /, with lp as group:

Code:

-rw------- 1 root lp 1024 2010-03-09 06:44 /.rnd

Don't remember ever seeing that before. Anyone know what that's about?

As far as /var/log/messages is concerned, the file creation timestamp coincides with gpm startup and stunnel startup. neither of which should have anything to do with the lp group..
