I have been looking at that, it seems I have two choices: www.matrixssl.org : : Because it is small. www.openssl.org : : Because it is what most people expect. If we are going to be successful at building a vserver guest that can be remotely rescued, then the decision may have to be made on which can be built with static linkage. Perhaps both? Like this: initial-install (baby01) : : chroot/vserver rescue software - - - - the matrixssl staticly linked - - - - the BusyBox is already providing a telnetd - - - - the BusyBox is providing a vi editor - - - - the BusyBox can be staticly linked - - - - already have a staticly linked Bash base-install (baby02) : : rescue, backup, restore, and maintenance. - - - - the openssl dynamicly linked - - - - a dynamicly linked nano editor - - - - the BusyBox is currently dynamicly linked - - - - I added a dynamicly linked Bash in /opt/gnu/bash/* The baby02 level should be fine for anyone that is not playing with an experimental libc6 (like some that I know). People who need more features should be loading the base-install of some Linux distribution. I am also trying to keep this exercise within a single semester's work in system administration - but I will not cripple the package for that purpose. I will give this some more study, I can't answer my own question at the moment.
