Can you please show me where to download the package.

Have you tried mr google:
http://www.libssh2.org/wiki/index.php/Main_Page
http://sourceforge.net/projects/libssh2/

This is probably source.

I want to know how to install it on hpux 11.11

I assume you first have to figure out how to build it.

There is a libssh2-1.0/README in your .tgz.

I've installed Openssl
I've executed the following:

#cd libssh2-1.0
#./configure --with-libssl-prefix=PATH

But I got the error message:
configure: error: cannot find OpenSSL or Libgcrypt,
try --with-libssl-prefix=PATH or --with-libgcrypt-prefix=PATH

1) you may still need libgcrypt

2) "#./configure --with-libssl-prefix=PATH"

what did you use for PATH in the above? it should be the path to where the ssl
stuff was installed. you will probably have to do the same with libgcrypt

The attached file

[Dennis Handly]

>(Bundled) cc: error 1705: Function prototypes are an ANSI feature.

You'll either need to purchase the ANSI C compiler or use gcc.

[bouserg_1]

thanks for reply,

I've not ANSI C installed.
How to use gcc?

>How to use gcc?

On your make command line you use CC=gcc. And probably something similar for configure.

[bouserg_1]

Hi Denis,

I've installed gcc with its dependencies(libgcc,libconv and gettext)
Now the make command work without error;also the make install command.
Thanks for your help.

I'll assign you points.

Is there a way to be sure that the libssh2 is correctly installed?

Any test targets in the makefile?
