The first problem I found was that openssh-3.4p1 in base doesn't appear to link against openssl-0.9.6e in base. Numerous unresolved references result for libssh.so. The solution I used for this was to reinstall openssh-portable-3.4p1 again until the base version is fixed. This may not be a bad thing because the ports version of openssh may be more "fixed" than base. The second problem I found was that openssl-0.9.6e from ports installs libcrypto/libssl with version number 3 while the updated base version installs with version number 2. This broke a lot of my installed ports. The solution I adopted for this was to symlink libcrypto/libssl.so.2 to libcrypto/libssl.so.3. This keeps my ports happy and any rebuilds of them will reference the .so.2 version through the existing .so symlinks. I hope this information helps anyone who dealt with the openSSH issue as I did and now wishes to revert to a standard installation.
