ok, i wasn't trying to say that what you did was useless or something. i
wanted to clarify things. for my own case, i always just took the newest
openssl and it always worked (it was always the most recent 0.9.7) -
since march or so... it's good to know exactly, so thanks for the
clarification.

the point is not what they should do. i asked if they did because i tend
to think that they don't.

did you try it out personally? i somehow understood that Alan and you
were talking about somebody else's tries. in that case, as i tried to
explain, he could have been using a module which was not compiled with
the server but before, in some earlier compilation.

in my case, configure NEVER succeds simply because you need a -lcrypto
after the -lssl in the makefile (took some time to find this one out)...
i.e. the rlm_eap_tls is never compiled if i only do "./configure"... i
should try the 0.8 release, perhaps monday, i'm not in the office right
now.
