Hello group

I installed Slackware 10.0 from the CD set (purchased from the
Slackware store) last Sunday. It works fine
except that there is something strange with the OpenSSL system.

With Lynx, I get messages like "Unable to use (or get) cert". With Mizolla
I get errors like "SSL read timed out". Does this mean there is a problem with
the OpenSSL libraries? Is there a way to test and configure them?

There doesn't appear to be a kernel module in lsmod suggestive
of encryption. Should there be? I'm using the adaptec bootdisk from the
first CD.

Thanks

If you are missing a OpenSSL library, check (in /var/log/packages) whether
you have installed package named "openssl-solibs-0.9.7d-i486-1". If not,
install it. It lives in "slackware/a/" directory of yout Slackware 10 -
CD1.

Thanks for that.

The package is there. The problem I was having appears to be a known bug in
the Lynx code. So, the Openssl libraries appear to be working. Thanks
again.
