Hi,

Based on what you have shared, I believe you didn't link the library files
required. You should use the -lssl option for this.
i.e.

root #: gcc sample_file.c -lssl

This is of course assuming that Openssl installed without any incident as
you have said. Also, if this is the first time that you are using OpenSSL,
you should probably use the s_server and s_client programs that were given
along with the openssl source package instead of some sample file as these
programs work and hence remove any doubt associated with the correctness of
the program itself.
