Hi! Lutz,
I am so thankful to you.It finally worked, but could you please tell me why
my code was building fine when I was not using OpenSSL.
Thanks and regards.

P.S. But the problem with des.h stays for I am forcing the OpenSSL lib to
use a different signature of the crypt function by defining
HEADER_DES_LOCL_H. Not doing so makes the compiler to complain saying

"/usr/include/unistd.h", line 169: Error: Only one of a set of overloaded
functions can be "C" or "Pascal".

Let's start with some good advice: 0.9.2b is dead and gone, we are at 0.9.6
now with a lot of enhancements and bugs fixed. It is worth to upgrade!

Now to your problem: __umoddi3 is a symbol created by gcc that is satisfied
by linking against -lgcc. This should happen automatically when also linking
with gcc. I have seen these problems when linking in a gcc-compiled library
when actually using the normal cc on HP-UX (this should also apply to all
other platforms not using gcc as normal compiler). There are two possible
solutions: recompile openssl with the native compiler of your platform
or explicitly link agains libgcc by adding
  -L/usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/hppa2.0-hp-hpux10.20/2.95.2 -lgcc
(your location of libgcc.a may vary).

Best regards,
        Lutz
PS. This problem is not related to your des.h header problem.
