This wouldn't be a Redhat machine would it?

For better or worse, Redhat still insists on pushing out patched
openssl-0.96 stuff instead of the current 0.97 tree - which FreeRADIUS docs
as being a REQUIREMENT to get it working.

As just about every third app these days is linked against OpenSSL, it's
basically impossible to replace the RH OpenSSL install with 0.97 - leaving
FreeRADIUS in a hard place.

The only way I've found to get it to work is to manually compile and install
0.97 under (say) /usr/local/ssl-0.97b, then move all the /usr/lib 0.96
libraries aside, rename /usr/include/openssl to something else, and put
symlinks in to the 0.97 stuff. Then compile FreeRADIUS, but run it under
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/ssl-0.97b/lib. Oh yeah, and don't forget to
reverse out all those renames afterwards otherwise you'll have one hell of a
broken system

There must be a cleaner way... Besides moving to another distro ;-)
