If you use openssl (or one of the other public domain products), RSA has the right to ask you to cease and desist based on their patent. If you continue to use it after being asked to cease and desist, RSA may also be able to win a court case for damages. If you are worried about that, you can purchase one of the commercial flavors - Stronghold or RedHad Secure Server. Lee Leland V.
