Sorry for the newbie question, but trying to learn.
I'm new to UNIX and just compiled my first OpenSSL (0.9.3a) a week or two
ago. Do I need to do anything special to replace (0.9.3a) with 0.9.4, or do
I just compile the new version and (make) install it?
Thanks,
Steven Smith

>
> The OpenSSL project team is pleased to announce the release of version
> 0.9.4 of our open source toolkit for SSL/TLS. This new OpenSSL version
> incorporates over 50 changes and bugfixes to the toolkit (for a complete
> list see http://www.openssl.org/source/exp/CHANGES).
>
> The most significant changes are:
>
> o Transparent support for PKCS#8 format private keys: these are used by
> several software packages and are more secure than the standard form
> o PKCS#5 v2.0 implementation
> o Password callbacks have a new ``void *'' argument for
>application data
> o Avoid various memory leaks
> o New pipe-like BIO that allows using the SSL library when actual I/O
> must be handled by the application (BIO pair)
>
> We consider OpenSSL 0.9.4 to be the best version of OpenSSL available and
> we strongly recommend that users of older versions, especially
>of old SSLeay
> versions, upgrade as soon as possible. OpenSSL 0.9.4 is available for
> download via HTTP and FTP from the following master locations
>(the various
> FTP mirrors you can find under
http://www.openssl.org/source/mirror.html):
o http://www.openssl.org/source/
o ftp://ftp.openssl.org/source/
