That's good. I wasn't aware of it until you mentioned it. They are part of SUNWopenssl-libraries - which looks like it's new witH Solaris 10. The Blog Post states that "some part of OpenSSL lives" in Solaris 9 but we don't seem to have it on our S9 hosts. I'm not sure if SUNWopenssl-libraries is mandatory. Definitely we don't have the command line interface (the openssl command) installed on our S10 boxes. >The problem is that OpenSSL resides in a directory /usr/sfw/lib, > >kir...@t2:[~] $ ls /usr/sfw/lib/libssl* >/usr/sfw/lib/libssl.so /usr/sfw/lib/libssl.so.0.9.7 > /usr/sfw/lib/libssl_extra.so.0.9.7 And the 64-bit versions are in /usr/sfw/lib/sparcv9 - so you will need different linker paths for 32-bit and 64-bit variants. -- Peter Jeremy
