Did you configure your 0.9.6g to build shared libraries? (using 'shared' at the end of the config line?) like this:
./config --prefix=/usr --openssldir=/usr/share/ssl shared If so, then try to find the libraries that were built. (by looking at the dates, for example.) If not, then you could try removing all redhat RPMs for OpenSSL and then rebuilding 0.9.6g using the config line above. rpm -qa | grep -e 'openssl' should return an approximate list of redhat OpenSSL packages installed. I uninstalled each RPM that was listed with rpm -e --nodeps <PACKAGENAME> Frank E Keitz mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: Robert Fitzpatrick [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, December 04, 2002 7:43 PM To: 'Keitz, Frank E' Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Installation on RedHat 7.3 > From: Robert Fitzpatrick [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] >> I installed openssl-0.9.6g on my RedHat box, with the engine. >> Now, when I try to install openssh-3.5p1, it errors on the >> configure build telling me that the openssl headers do not >> match and shows the OpenSSL 0.9.6g as the header version and >> OpenSSL 0.9.6b as the library version. > > From: Keitz, Frank E [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] ...By manually creating the > symbolic links for libcrypto.so.1, libcrypto.so.2, etc. - I > was able to get everything (that I noticed) working with the > new libraries.

I don't care what I have to do, it is a development box, I can always rebuild if I royally screw things up. What I show in the /usr/lib is a symlink for libcrypto.so pointing to ../../lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.6b and in /lib I show libcrypto.so.2 pointing to the same file, /lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.6b. Can I manually recreate the symlinks to point to the right library like you mentioned? If so, where should I point which file. I don't show a libcrypto.so.1. Again, I don't care about breaking things, I can try to fix them or just re-build, which I hope to avoid :( -- Robert ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
