openssh depends on openssl and this library comes along with openssl.

Please also install openssl.

if you are looking for a packaged version check

Hi,

I don't find this library file on our servers where HP secure shell is running.

If you unable to find the library file, better you to reinstall the HP ported Secure shell by downloading from the link provided above.

Hi Yash,

Check this thread. Someone mention this.

>>>if you have /usr/lib/libssl.so.0.9.6 on your system just create a symbolic link to it (as root):

ln -s /usr/lib/libssl.so.0.9.6 /usr/lib/libssl.so.2

do the same for libcrypto if required:

ln -s /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.6 /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.2

worked fine for me, nessus runs. <<<<

First, the "INIT: Command is respawning too rapidly" messages are related to cimserverd process, not sshd.

Cimserverd has some known bugs, are you up to date with patches?

What is your HP-UX machine model? (In other words, what does the "model" command say?)

By the version number of the SecureShell package, I can tell you are probably running HP-UX 11.31.

If you are running some other version of HP-UX, someone might have force installed a wrong version of the HP SSH package. A package intended for older versions of HP-UX might work in a newer version, but not vice versa. If you are unsure, please run "uname -a" to verify the HP-UX version.

To see where the system expects to find the libcrypto.so.0 file, run "ldd /opt/ssh/sbin/sshd". It will list all the libraries sshd is going to use, and the paths it uses to find them.

Re: ssh error

T G Manikandan — Tue, 17 Mar 2009 09:12:29 GMT

can you check if the openssl package is present

swlist |grep -i openssl

Re: ssh error

T G Manikandan — Tue, 17 Mar 2009 09:16:38 GMT

what is the output of

usr/lib/libssl.*

Re: ssh error

T G Manikandan — Tue, 17 Mar 2009 09:16:58 GMT

Sorry I mean

ls -l /usr/lib/libssl.*

Re: ssh error

Dennis Handly — Tue, 17 Mar 2009 09:39:29 GMT

>T G Manikandan: ll /usr/lib/libssl.*

Integrity shlibs (for sshd) should be in /usr/lib/hpux64/.

Re: ssh error

T G Manikandan — Tue, 17 Mar 2009 09:46:04 GMT

can you do a

swlist -l file -a openssl
to check whether the files have are installed.
