It would certainly help if you actually knew what it was saying,
not just believed it! And wasn't it rather libldap.so, not
openldap.so. Of course, libldap.so is usually provided by some
openldap package.

He certainly meant -lldap (the library is called libldap.so, so
the linker flag is called -lldap). If your library really is
called openldap.so (which I very much doubt), then you can not
link it with the -l option, you have to add the fully qualified
path name of that library to the linker command line.

What was meant is "-lldap -lcrypto". Libraries later in later
flags have to satisfy references left open by earlier libraries.

You are linking statically to a library that some other library,
namely libldap, want's to link dynamically. How's that supposed
to work? Static linking means you have a copy of libcrypto in
your binary, with the symbols of that library removed, because
they have already been resolved. Then libldap gets linked, and
wants to know about the same symbols once again, so a shared copy
of the library libcrypto has to be added to the address space.
What a mess. So the real question is: WTH are you trying to link
statically!
