Your probably right. I'm just a little beyond a newbie on this stuff. I'm
more experienced on fourth-generation languages like SAS and Focus. Tweaking
the compile and link options is beyond me without very specific instructions...
Thanks for the input. I posted to the list 'for future generations', since
that was the first place I looked.

Subject: RE: libssl.so.0 - cannot open shared object file -
solution
Interesting. I usually use the default options when compiling OpenSSL
(./config ; make ; make test), I guess this results in OpenSSL not building
the shared libraries in the first place. Then when mod_ssl gets built, it
links with the static libraries.
I think that you could specify the "-static" flag when
configuring/installing mod_ssl and still be able to build shared-libs, just
set the CFLAGS environment variable to "-static". I like to set the CFLAGS
variable to "-O2", since Apache doesn't compile with any optimization by
default.
