Hello,

Just a follow-up to the list.  I did get things working by building 
another version of OpenSSL on my system.  I started with 
0.9.8e-fips-rhel5, which has no support for ECC.  I built 1.0.0a, with 
the configure options of "configure shared".

I then built the OpenCA OCSP daemon after rebuilding my library cache 
and using:

./configure --with-openssl-prefix=/path/to/ssl

I also ran into a problem using sha384, where the "md" setting currently 
applies to the signing of the responses, but also alters the generation 
of the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash.  This was fixed by altering the 
code a bit, and I sent the patch to Max.  I have also posted it on my 
web site.  Hope this helps the next person along...

Thanks!
