Hi,
i checked my openssl, it was version 0.9.6x
(vulnerable)
MandrakeUpdate, does not offer its upgrade via
security updates.
OK. So? Download openssl-0.9.7b (No rpm available)
OK. Make one of my own (rpm -tb .....tar.gz), Fine.
Try installing (complains about conflicting stuff!)
rpm -e openssl-0.9.6* ;libopenssl0-0.9.6i-1.4mdk is
needed by a bunch of stuff.
So, I used rpm -i --force openssl-0.9.7b-.....
OK, Good. But libopenssl0-0.9.6i-1.4mdk was not
overwritten! So? manually adjusted link for
libssl.so.0 to point to libssl.so.0.9.7 instead of
libssl.so.0.9.6, and likewise for libcrypto.so.0
OK. Good. Openssl upgraded.
#ssh otherhost;
OpenSSL version mismatch. Built against 90607f, you
have 90702f
Arrrggghhhh.....i will have to built my own ssh then,
no rpm for 3.6p1 available. Try building my own:
rpm -tb openssh-3.6p1.tar.gz
error: x11-askpass.... missing.
Duh!! Downloaded that from some site:
one more try: error: failed build dependencies:
XFree86-imake is needed by openssh-3.6p1-2
Can't locate XFree86-imake rpm!!
Gave up making openssh rpm, I will perform manual
install:
./configure --with-tcp-wrapper
Error; libwrap not found (I have tcp-wrapper rpm
installed though!!)
Google for libwrap library, found an rpm for it:
rpm -ivh libwrap-7.6.30.i386.rpm ; Error:error: failed
dependencies:
tcp_wrappers < 7.6-28 conflicts with libwrap-7.6-30
So, now I have to uninstall tcp_wrappers to install
libwrap
(If you are still reading, do you even remember the
original problem?????)
Why are things this complicated????
_Thanks
Richard
