Do we know that the OP's only interest is in updating (unnecessarily, it would appear) the IBM Tools that use OpenSSL internally? Kirk and Walt seem to assume so.
I OTOH (and perhaps David?) made the assumption -- perhaps incorrectly -- that he had an interest in using the OpenSSL library as part of some other project. I don't see an indication either way in the OP.

IBM Ported Tools OpenSSH includes *some* of the crypto algorithms (ciphers, MACs, and RSA, DSA, and EC-DSA key operations) from OpenSSL. But OpenSSH doesn't use SSL (at all), so the issues that we have seen with OpenSSL do not apply. Also, IBM Ported Tools OpenSSH uses ICSF for selected (and commonly used) crypto algorithms, bypassing OpenSSL altogether. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
