[Riccardo Alessiani]

Hi!!

I have install the packet openssl-0.9.2b whit the following commands:

./config
make  make install

1) Now...How can i install the applications located in 
/open-0.9.2.b/demos/ssl/cli.cpp and /open-0.9.2.b/demos/ssl/serv.cpp ( I use 
Fedora 5) ?

2) How can i use this applications?

Thanks

First: This is something to go to openssl-users, not openssl-dev.
(You are attempting to use the library, not develop inside the
library.)

Next: Why on earth are you using such an outdated version?  The
supported versions are 0.9.7m and 0.9.8g.  0.9.2b is from 1999, and
there have been 8 years of continued development on them.

 There are products in production networks now that have old
 version of OpenSSL.  Vendors typically react poorly, in my experience,
 to suggestions they should update to, oh, say, the most recent
 version as recommended by the OpenSSL team ;-)

That was not the advice given.
openssl-0.9.7 release date is Dec 31 01:06:14 2002
And 0.9.7 branch is still maintained.

 So, yeah, this was off-topic, but unfortunately you should not
 assume this person is running an old system - they could have
 received 0.9.2b from some vendor just recently.

Unlikely unless it is a couple of braindead vendor/buyer so nobody has to
care that they are more than 5 years late. Who is still installing an rh7.2
system today except for archeological purpose?

Nobody could blame the openssl team for the long term support for free.
Unfortunately still supporting a version 5 years after the release is not so
frequent (for good or bad reasons).
