No worrys.

I learned long ago to go directly to http://leaf.sourceforge.net/pub/oxygen/ if I wanted to see any current information. I can't expect the web side of things to be stable when the rest of the program is in flux. One of the things I've tried to work on with David off the list is deploying a stable version. I thought we had Oxygen-051401 pretty well ship-shape, but the winds of change brought libc-2.1.3 into play. So Oxygen has been in flux since June. When I don't see any posts about Oxygen but then try to use it and find a lot of errors, I get the impression that I'm the only one using it. > >And finally, since when does openssh work without openssl? > > Actually, it only needs libcrypto, not the full-blown openssl. See below. Ok. I wasn't specific using the term openssl. More recent OpenSSH requires OpenSSL to compile. Whether the final sshd depends on libssl or libcrypto is a function of the OpenSSL libraries being static or shared, among other things. > >If a recent openssh is available from J.

If I run ldd against this sshd, I don't see libssl or > libssl09 mentioned in its dependencies. I ran ldd on the OpenSSH-2.9.9p2 sshd and it doens't depend on libssl, libcrypto, or libcrypt.

I think I agree. > So the Oxygen package looks like the only way to get the libraries. Ok, but I guess I should mention that the newer libc-2.1.3 based Oxygen can use RedHat files, though I don't know all the details. > The executable remains a problem.
