OpenSSL version and OpenSSH

alekkz · #1 (**permalink**) 5 Days Ago

Hi,
I need an advise. Is it possible to compile binary of ssh that will work on more than one computer with installed different versions of openssl. I read it is not possible to compile static program over solaris but anyway? I am confused.

You want to compile ssh once; then migrate it to several different machines?
Different OS levels or architectures (sparc vs x86 for example) will break this idea.

Is there some reason you cannot use makefile and compile once on each box

You can bundle the required libraries with your ssh distribution.

You can compile (mostly) static programs under Solaris.

jim mcnamara OS is Solaris 8 on sparc. Same OS just different versions of SSL. It will be pain to compile ssh for each of them.
