Coupla thoughts on this thread:

1. You can probably build proftpd without ssl anyway.  Are you
  sure you need it?  (hint: you probably don't)

 Try something like --without ssl or --without openssl
 in the configure run.




Or, rebuild 'openssl.???-??.srpm' by changing the locations of the
libraries required by proftpd from '/lib;/usr/lib' to '/usr/local/lib;/usr/local/usr/lib'
in 'openssl.???-??.srpm'. This is a mechanical procedure I think.


In this way, one does not have to overwrite the libraries for legacy openssl
which are required by other legacy modules in RH7.3.


2. Install (fedora3/rhel4) from scratch on another box and
  and move apps one by one; substitute when you're happy.
  (you can get faster box than yours for $100 at e.g. North
  Rocks computer market)





This is the better alternative, if every other alternative is not operational.
