Folks:

        I'm trying to network my office Macintosh(-es) and my 
Thinkpad (running RH 7.2), using Netatalk (v. 1.5.3.1) and I'm 
running into a dependency issue...

        I downloaded netatalk in both tarball and RPM versions. I 
recall installing it via the RPM. When I reboot Linux, I get a 
"failed" message regarding netatalk and listing the 
"libcrypto.so.0.9.6.1" as a missing library. I checked my system and 
found a file called "libcrypto.so.0.9.6", but apparently, I'm off the 
mark just a bit.

        I checked RPMFind.net and the Red Hat Web site for 
"libcrypto.so.0.9.6.1" and found nothing. I checked Google and found 
references to it in the current version of OpenSSL (v. 0.9.6g), but 
was not able to access just this library file.

        I tried compiling/installing OpenSSL 0.9.6g in hopes of that 
process adding "libcrypto.so.0.9.6.1" to my system, so that I  can 
get netatalk running (at least). This didn't resolve the problem - a 
global "find" failed to locate any "libcrypto.so.0.9.6.1" file.

        Any thoughts about WHY I'm having this kind of dependency 
issue? Did I not install netatalk properly in the first place? I'm 
confused as to why I'm getting an error about a missing library item 
that seems to be NEWER than the program that I'm trying to install.

        Also, I'm confused as to WHY I can't just download the 
library file, instead of having to upgrade my entire OpenSSL package.

        I need to be able to network my Macs and my Thinkpad. Burning 
a CD-ROM to move data 18 inches seems like a serious waste of 
resources!
