Hi All,

I am trying to install OpenSSL-0.9.8a on RHEL5. Now, RHEL5 comes with
it's own install of OpenSSL-0.9.8b (that I do not want to mess up as
its libs are linked to by a number of applications). I'm downgrading
as I must work with that version of the library.

When I install OpenSSL - make, make test, make install - all goes
well. However, when I run the command:

# ldd /usr/local/ssl/bin/openssl
       linux-gate.so.1 =>  (0x0041d000)
       libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x00492000)
       libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x00111000)
       /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x0030d000)

libssl and libcrypto do not seem to be linked into my install. Running
it on the originally installed version gives (among other libraries):

# ldd /usr/bin/openssl
       libssl.so.6 => /lib/libssl.so.6 (0x0025f000)
       libk5crypto.so.3 (0x00b2f000)
       libcrypto.so.6 => /lib/libcrypto.so.6 (0x009f6000)


Also, in /usr/local/ssl/lib, there is only ibcrypto.a and libssl.a (no
.so files).

The binary still works ok. I would just like to verify that it is
using only OpenSSL-0.9.8a installed files and that the installation
went off ok.

Is that possible without doing an uninstall of all OpenSSL (a and b)
files and then reinstalling 'a' version? How would I go about that?

Best Regards,
Brendan
