samba - Mar 2000 - SSL

When will samba include support for a more up to date implementation of SSL
such as openssl (http://www.openssl.org). SSLeay does not appear to have
been updated since mid 1998.

	Probably when one of us gets our heads above the mire of the tar
pits we're in and have a chance to look at it.  I hadn't even thought
about it.  Now that the US export regulations have relaxed, a few more
of us qualify to tinker in that area.  I'm swamped at the moment but might
have a look.  The changes to go from SSLeay to OpenSSL are pretty minor
and mostly issues for configure (need to add some include directories).
If there are any BIOS calls, we may need to modify some call lists.  It's
probably only a few hours work.  It only took me a few minutes to adapt
my fetchmail-ssl patches to work with OpenSSL as well as SSLeay.  The
real challenge will then be to test it!

	If someone gets to it before I do, more the merrier...  :-)

I am trying to configure Samba with SSL on our HPK260 machine /w hpux 11.0 
32bit, 500MB memory, and when I run the 'make' command I get a lot of
errors
like the following:


/usr/ccs/bin/ld: (Warning) At least one PA 2.0 object file (ssleay.o) was 
detect ucomp :
Error at line 0 : memory exhausted at 65548 Kbytes: try increasing swap 
space
*** Error exit code 254


/usr/ccs/bin/ld: Unsatisfied symbols:


/usr/ccs/bin/ld: (Warning) At least one PA 2.0 object file (bntest.o) was 
detected. The linked output may not run on a PA 1.x system.


Prior to running the make command, I ran 'Configure hpux-cc'. The K260
has a
PA8000 2.0 processor. The HP C/ANSI C Compiler B.11.01.06 is installed on 
the system.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Jim
