hallo,

my apologies,

in my previous e-mail i was wrong about --libdir flag...

i had to modify the configure script to add a dir with openssl include and
lib files:

echo $ac_n "checking for SSLeay""... $ac_c" 1>&6
echo "configure:4676: checking for SSLeay" >&5
ac_cv_ssleay_path=no
incdir=no
for dir in /usr/${host_alias} /usr /usr/local /usr/local/ssl; do <--here

thanks,

hallo,

i do not use redhat, but you probably only have openssl package
installed.
they may (and probably do) have an openssl-dev (?) package that also
needs to be installed.

also, ./configure --libdir=/your/path/to/openssl

also, rm config.cache before running ./configure :)

Hi,
I have an RH9.0 system that came With OPenSSL 0.9.7b.
However when I try to compile tcpdump on this system, I get the following
message:
--SNIP--
checking for SSLeay... /usr
checking for des_cbc_encrypt in -lcrypto... (cached) no
checking for cast.h... (cached) no
checking for rc5.h... (cached) no
--SNIP--

I think the above just disables the crypto code for tcpdump (which I
need).

I checked the configure.in and found out that it was looking for
libcrypto.a only in the following directories:

/usr /usr/local /usr/local/ssl /usr/pkg

I also have an older OpenSSL package (0.9.6) installed explicitly in
a non-system directory (/home/shashank/openssl-0.96b).

If I want to compile tcpdump using openSSL-0.9.6b, what will I have to do.

More specifically if i change some lines in configure.in, do I have to run
aclocal and autoconf and something else?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Regards
Shashank
