Now, Internat is a big place, y'know... :-) Right, because I'm still trying to get someone to put them on ftp.freebsd.org and internat.freebsd.org :) Bug Mark Murray about getting the international one on the internat ftp site. In the meantime, you can just compile it up on another 4.0 machine and transfer /usr/lib/lib{ssl,crypto}.*, /usr/bin/openssl and /usr/include/openssl/* to your machine. > I tried to install openssl from ports, but it was not allowed by that > rule I complained about.

I'm referring to the base system openssl binary package, which installs the same things under /usr as if you'd compiled the relevant version from source, since there are several possible permutations. Once you install that everything will work just fine. Kris ---- "How many roads must a man walk down, before you call him a man?" "Eight!" "That was a rhetorical question!"
