I have just re-checked your other messages. I probably don't have enough
information available.
- What kind of system are you using?
- What compiler are you using?
- You are trying to _use_ the openssl library rather than installing the
library?
If you have a look into the "des.h" header file (version of openssl 0.9.6),
you will find the following construct at line 192:
#if !defined(PERL5) && !defined(__FreeBSD__) && !defined(NeXT)
char *crypt(const char *buf,const char *salt);
#endif
For me it seems, that when compiling PERL5 or when working on the FreeBSD or
Next platform, there is a problem with crypt(). Maybe we have to take care
of another platform??
Best regards,
Lutz
