FW: unable to install openssh 2.1.1.p4

[Matt Wolinski]

My $LD_LIBRARY_PATH does include the "/usr/local/ssl/lib" directory and I
have been passing the configure script my ssl directory.

./configure --with-ssl-dir=/usr/local/ssl

Also, I am running Solaris 7 on a Sparc.  Thank you very much for all of
your suggestions,

-Matt

Matt,

Have you tried to set your LD_LIBRARY_PATH?  For instance if your ssl lived
in /opt/ssl/lib, and your were running bash or ksh you could type:

	export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/ssl/lib

or if it already is setup to something:

  
	export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}:/opt/ssl/lib

conversly, the configure file has an option to say where ssl is installed:

	./configure --with-ssl-dir=/opt/ssl

Assuming that is of course assuming that ssl is under /opt/ssl

Cheers...james
