My OpenSSL version is based on 0.9.8e to which I added all security patches (I've checked your list and all of those are in my version too) but now I finally wanted to be "up-to-date" to avoid having to roll my own patches (and getting complaints from users that my version isn't "secure" because it has an older version number). Unfortunately it isn't as simple as it should have been. ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List openssl-users@openssl.org Automated List Manager majord...@openssl.org
