Yes. It is not installed correctly as "make test" fails. It is dumping core in SSL_CTX_ctrl(). I tried to debug it, but then figured out that if you install Crypt::SSLeay against OpenSSL 0.9.7 then it works. You specify this when you run "perl Makefile.PL". It didnt' work against 0.9.8. Maybe someone else can look into it? I don't have time to do more digging. Please excuse me. But I think this should get u going at least. regards, Girish > > Cheers, Jon. > > ______________________________________________________________________ > OpenSSL Project > http://www.openssl.org > User Support Mailing List > openssl-users@openssl.org > Automated List Manager > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
