openssh unix dev - Sep 2005 - Compile of openssh 4.2 failed with openssl 0.9.8

Hi,

I tried to compile openssh 4.2 with gcc 3.2.2 and openssl 0.9.8 on linux 
running Kernel 2.4.29.

The error I get is:

make[1]: Verlassen des Verzeichnisses 
?/home/tlitsch/openssh-4.2p1/openbsd-compat?
gcc -o ssh ssh.o readconf.o clientloop.o sshtty.o sshconnect.o 
sshconnect1.o sshconnect2.o -L. -Lopenbsd-compat/ -L/usr/include/openssl 
  -ldl -lssh -lopenbsd-compat -lresolv -lcrypto -lutil -lz -lnsl -lcrypt
./libssh.a(rsa.o): In function `rsa_generate_additional_parameters':
rsa.o(.text+0x2b4): undefined reference to `BN_mod'
rsa.o(.text+0x2e6): undefined reference to `BN_mod'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [ssh] Fehler 1

I did the ./configure with this Shell-Script:

#! /bin/bash
#
# Build or openssh

export CFLAGS="-O3 -pipe"
export CXXFLAGS="-O3 -pipe"

./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc/ssh \
         --libexecdir=/usr/lib/ssh \
         --localstatedir=/var/state --mandir=/usr/share/man \
         --with-pam --with-zlib \
         --with-ssl-dir=/usr/include/openssl \
         --with-tcp-wrappers \
         --with-ldflags=-ldl

#EOF

I also tried with "--with-ssl-dir=/usr/lib" becaus ethis is, where 
libcrypto.so lives:

-rw-r--r--    1 root     root      2015040 2005-09-10 07:53 
/usr/lib/libcrypto.a
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           18 2005-09-10 07:53 
/usr/lib/libcrypto.so -> libcrypto.so.0.9.8
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           21 2005-09-10 12:25 
/usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0 -> /usr/lib/libcrypto.so
-r-xr-xr-x    1 root     root       853655 2004-03-31 11:33 
/usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.6
-r-xr-xr-x    1 root     root      1398303 2005-09-10 07:53 
/usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8

But the error remains the same.


A few words to my background:

I'm involved in maintaining a special Linux Distribution for german 
Schools, so what we have here is something based on SuSE 9.0 with a lot 
of self-compiled programs.


Can anybody help me?

I suspect this is your problem

Try droping the --with-ssl-dir= line.
