I tried compiling Stunnel on Debian and get an error -- I need the ssl libraries. I tried ./configure --with-ssl=/usr/lib/ssl, which is where libssl-dev was installed, and it doesn't help. There is a libssl file in /usr/lib, but --with-ssl=/usr/lib/ssl doesn't seem to work either. What package on Debian provides the needed headers (according to aptitude, libssl-dev, the one I installed, does, but experience is telling me otherwise). (This, btw, is why I am trying to make static binaries -- you can never tell what to expect on Linux systems at this point. Often config/make doesn't work and there are many times when packages don't work out for one reason or another.) Thanks for any help on this. Hal
