I feel like at this point I've explained this more than a couple times. It's
not dynamically linked against the ssl libs because that would make it way
harder for dell to deliver a closed-source binary, and for I suspect
legal/liability reasons, Dell isn't shipping an SSL library.
Try the following:
# /compat/linux/opt/dell/srvadmin/bin/idracadm7 -r localhost -u root -p xxx
getsysinfo
(It doesn't have to be a real server). The tool will try to dlopen libssl.so
to create a TLS connection and will emit this error:
ERROR: RAC1170: Unable to find the SSL library in the default path.
If a SSL library is not installed, install one and retry the
operation. If a SSL library is installed, create a soft-link of the
installed SSL library to "libssl.so <http://libssl.so/>" using the linux
"ln" command
and retry the operation.
It doesn't try to look for the ssl lib if it's just printing help text.
Either you've downloaded my most recent port skeleton which creates the link
correctly (but not relative), or you haven't tried actually connecting
somewhere.
