libcrypto.so and libgcc_s.so.1 not found

[Fish Flowers]

Hello,

So, I'm a relatively clueless desktop support type, who somehow has ended
up trying to build and secure a Solaris 8 box. Woe is me, most especially
because I can't seem to get OpenSSH to #$@! configure.

I think the problem is with my OpenSSL install, and here's why: When I run
configure in the OpenSSH (3.0.1p1) source directory, it bombs out,
apparently when trying to find either A) libgcc_s.so.1, or
B) libcrypto.so -- it reports that it can't find a working OpenSSL
directory.

I have what appears to be a good OpenSSL installation, though -- is there
something I'm missing? Have I installed the wrong thing? Here are the
details of the system and existing software, for those who care:

Sun Ultra 60 running Solaris 8
gnu bc-1.06
gnu make-3.79.1
gnu gcc-2.95
openssl-0.9.6b
*openssh-3.0.1p1

[*] if only...

I've installed all of these from source. Can't even get to make on the
OpenSSH install, though. Very frustrating. Can't find any documentation
anywhere which addresses this problem. Please help. So confused...

Fish.

So, did you tell the OpenSSL configuratino script any specific place
where it should be installed?  If not, it's most probably installed in
/usr/local/ssl.  Then, if the OpenSSH configuration script can't
figure it out, I'm pretty sure it has some options which you can use
to tell it where to look.  The following might help you find out what
those options are:

  ./configure --help
