(2) You didn't specify the path of your ssl in the --with-ssl-dir option These may or may not solve your problem, but try it out anyway. As a guide, try my own configure options below. I have used this on 2 Linux boxes, one is Slackware 7, the other is Red Hat 6. -------------------- ./configure --host=i686-pc-linux-gnu --x-includes=/usr/X11R6/include --x-libraries=/usr/X11R6/lib --with-ssl-dir=/usr/local/ssl --with-random=/dev/urandom --with-catman=man --with-tcp-wrappers --with-md5-passwords --with-lastlog=/var/log/lastlog --with-ipv4-default -------------------- I would also discourage you from disabling tcp wrapper. tcp wrapper checks whether a host trying to establish connection to your box is allowed or not. ssh only encrypts communication (thus protecting the contents of your traffic); ssh does not shut out the bad guys trying to get hold of your server. Also, there is already openssh 2.9p1. > You'll note that I'm USING --with-md5-passwords. In the Makefile, I've > added -lcrypt, but I can only login with NON md5 passwords. You don't need to add -lcrypt manually. The configure script will do this for you. -- Under capitalism, man exploits man. Under communism, it's just the opposite. -- J.K. Galbraith
