In general it is not a good idea to replace packaged system libraries with ones you have compiled yourself, this is a recipe for disaster. > Can both type of openssl package work happily on the same machine?

I would reinstalling the RPM, and installing your compiled OpenSSL somewhere other than /usr, e.g. using ./Configure --prefix=/opt/myopenssl (and then make sendmail pick up your compiled OpenSSL rather than the system one) Regards, joe ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
