Hello, I am new to Linux, just installed Ubuntu 6.06 for a school project. I have to install OpenSSH, which also needs Zlib and OpenSSL. The problem is that these programs have to be compiled. What do I need for that? I have had al 3 packages and none would compile. Is there a complete compiled set out? Rick

You should use the copy of OpenSSH that is included with your distribution. What does this command say for you? /usr/bin/ssh -V> Is there a complete compiled set out?OpenSSH is installed in /usr/bin/ssh and is packaged in the openssh-client package on Ubuntu. I believe that you may be simply having a use issue. As such you might want to direct further questions to the ubuntu-users at lists.ubuntu.com mailing list instead. They can help you with distribution specific questions such as this. Bob
