Guy,

I have looked at how net-snmp does the SSL tests and rewritten them the same
way.

The default action is to look for libcrypto in /usr/local/ssl/lib
--with-ssl=pathname
will cause pathname/lib to be searched.
--with-ssl=yes
assumes the correct path has already been included (eg if libcrypto was in
/usr/local/lib or /usr/lib)
--with-ssl=no
turns off SSL

Here are two patches, one to add on to the last one I sent
(cumulative-patch), one against to 0.8.18 source tar (0.8.18-patch).


Regards,
Andrew Hood

Does it now, by default, find "-lcrypto" if present and arrange that it
be included when linking and when checking for UCD SNMP (so that the
user doesn't have to use "--with-ssl" except if "-lcrypto" isn't in a
directory it already searches)?
