Well, it's working just find on my RH 6.2 box, and it's worked fine for several upgrades which have included recompiling apache and mod_ssl each time. > Since you are happy compiling from source, why not throw openssl into > the mix as well? Here's some old notes from the last time I compiled > this set-up (obviously change the versions, paths and architecture to > suit your system): I'm installing openssl from RPM because several RPMs in RedHat 7.2 require the package -- that's basically it. I wouldn't mind compiling everything from source -- but then I should probably be using FreeBSD. :-) Well, the main issue is that other RPMs require the openssl RPM. I suppose I could just `./configure; make` without `make install` and then point apache's configure to the source tree/libraries in that directory. I just hadn't thought of it. I gotta keep openssl installed as an RPM, though.
