I'm not 100% sure I'm following you because of your choice of terminology,
but here goes:
Yes, I do understand the DH exchange process. But with respect to the
OpenSSL DH Library usage, let's say I and another party have
fixed p g. I
calculate X using DH_generate_key() (I get a

Hello,
Is it true that for a given P g, I would always get the same public key
No, the private key is (should be) a random number = you get a different
public key for each invocation of DH_generate_key

Not quite, no. In fact, DH would be pretty useless if that were
the case. See

Perhaps you should read a textbook about cryptography.
I recommend Practical Cryptography from Bruce Schneier and Nils
Fergusson in this respect - it has a fine description of DH
Sorry about the confusion in terminologies.
My confusion was not about the DH exchange process. It's about how the APIs
work and generate keys. I should have been clearer in using the different
nomenclature.
Anyways, I now understand how the APIs work, after lot of digging into the
code and

Now the file libssl.so.0.9.7 is there. It's located in the

Set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to include that directory. (See
