Problems installing openssh

Youlette Etienne_2 — Fri, 22 Sep 2000 21:35:43 GMT

I opted for the Openssh, since I can use ssh instead of telnet, rlogin, etc. Unfortunately, I am encountering the following installation problem. Help! In the meantime, I am reading up on .netrc

I have installed OpenSSL, egd, and zlib. However, when I start to install Openssh with the following command, I get the following error message:

./configure --with-openssl-dir=/usr/local/ssl-withentropy-pool=/dev/random

checking for HPUX trusted system password database... yes
configure: warning: This configuration is untested
checking for deflate in -lz... no
configure: error: *** zlib missing - please install first ***

So I re-ftp'd and reinstalled the zlib.tar.gz file again and received the same error. I have copied the commands and the results of installing zlib below. Can anyone help with this?

Thanks

Hi,

I suppose the problem occurs because the libz file is in /usr/local/lib and that directory is not searched in for libraries.

Isn't there an option to 'configure' to specify the path to zlib?

Hope this helps,
Rik

If you did not already figure it out. You need to copy the zlib.h and zconf.h file to /usr/include and libz.a file to /usr/lib.
