I'm the only one who understands how most of it works and changing to FreeBSD would only complicate an already difficult situation. Your suggestion is a bit like asking for directions and getting the response "I wouldn't start from here if I were you"! ;-) There does appear to be a major problem with building openssl 0.9.6a and b on RedHat 6.2, which I've not got to the bottom of. I have successfully built openssl 0.9.6 from source rpms, but I and several others cannot get later editions to work. I can post the folllowing if it helps: The build part of a working 0.9.6 "spec" file. The errors obtained when trying to build 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b from the preceding spec file. The build part of RedHat's "spec" file for building what they claim is equivalent to 0.9.6b (even if it doesn't look like it!) I have been in contact with the previous providers of the RPMs for RedHat, and received a response from one of them that he is no longer building them as RedHat now includes it. Actually I was going to post to the openssl list the problems with this issue, as RedHat 7.x depends on 0.9.6 being installed and installing a later version via RPMs breaks 24 other packages! - John Airey Internet Systems Support Officer, ITCSD, Royal National Institute for the Blind, Bakewell Road, Peterborough PE2 6XU, Tel.: +44 (0) 1733 375299 Fax: +44 (0) 1733 370848 [EMAIL PROTECTED] - NOTICE: The information contained in this email and any attachments is confidential and may be legally privileged.
