I usually see ppl with this problem.. ..

if ur using redhat/mandrake make sure you have the

this at least is what is needed on mdk 9.2.. I guess it's much the same for redhat/suse..

libopenssl-devel
libopenssl-static-devel

rpm installed.. that is, if you've installed via rpm in the first place..

It's usually because ppl forget they need the development libraries to actually use the exported openssl methods...

For seeing the path to OpenSSL type:
"whereis openssl"
in your box's shell!

For what your EggDrop needs OpenSSL and how to add the path, don't ask me

Perhaps you should try to disable the SSH-Support ^^

I think what he is trying to get at is.

If you have root, you should be at a level, where you know how to find the information you require.

Aditionaly. The patch in question is unofficial, and as such, unsupported.

Thanks for the helpful reply. I should get a job working for you and posting on boards as to who is qualified to have root on boxes. You seem to be quite the expert at it.

Eggdrop doesn't use OpenSSL -- also, you sound like someone who shouldn't have root on those machines.

I have latest eggdrop, I patched it with the ssl patch then I tried to ./configure and got this error:

configure: error: OpenSSL was not found. Please supply a pathname to OpenSSL

I checked the host box and it says "openssl is already the newest version"

So my question is how do I find out where openssl is on my box, and second, how do I add the path?

I have root on the host box and it is running linux debian. I also get the same error from a redhat 8.0 box as well. Any help would be appreciated.

thanks

jimmy
