Please Did you try openssl-devel? sauron.deepsoft.com% yum info openssl-devel Setting up repositories Reading repository metadata in from local files Excluding Packages in global exclude list Finished Reducing CentOS-4 - Plus to included packages only Finished Installed Packages Name : openssl-devel Arch : i386 Version: 0.9.7a Release: 43.17.el4_7.2 Size : 3.6 M Repo : installed Summary: Files for development of applications which will use OpenSSL. Description: OpenSSL is a toolkit for supporting cryptography. The openssl-devel package contains static libraries and include files needed to develop applications which support various cryptographic algorithms and protocols. BTW: RedHat uses '-devel' for development packages. I believe Debian (et al.) uses '-dev' for development packages. > advise. > TIA, > Victor > > MIME-Version: 1.0 > > _______________________________________________ > CentOS mailing list > CentOS at centos.org > http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos > > -- Robert Heller -- 978-544-6933 Deepwoods Software -- Download the Model Railroad System http://www.deepsoft.com/ -- Binaries for Linux and MS-Windows heller at deepsoft.com -- http://www.deepsoft.com/ModelRailroadSystem/
