OpenSSH Installation Error -- Zlib missing

[raiden]

While compiling OpenSSH 4.3 p2 on HP-UX 11.11 following error occured.

configure: error: *** zlib missing - please install first or check config.log ***

I have Ansi C installed.
swlist -l product | grep -i ansi
C-ANSI-C B.11.11.12 HP C/ANSI C Compiler
PHSS_36086 1.0 ANSI C compiler B.11.11.16 cumulative patch

I have attached the detail log. How can the problem be resolved.

[Ivan Krastev]

Get and install zlib from here - http://hpux.connect.org.uk/hppd/hpux/Misc/zlib-1.2.3/

Ivan got this error after installing it.

checking for possibly buggy zlib... yes
configure: error: *** zlib too old - check config.log ***
Your reported zlib version has known security problems. It's possible your
vendor has fixed these problems without changing the version number. If you
are sure this is the case, you can disable the check by running
"./configure --without-zlib-version-check".
If you are in doubt, upgrade zlib to version 1.2.3 or greater.
See http://www.gzip.org/zlib/ for details.

[Ivan Krastev]

Just use configure script as mentioned:

"./configure --without-zlib-version-check".

are you sure you need to go thru this exercise?

Has the "RSA SecurID" product said they *can't* use the version that HP currently provides???

(it *is* openssh)

[Wim Rombauts]

Indeed, why all this trouble ? Just grab the HP-UX OpenSSH bundle and swinstall - see link from OldSchool. It works out of the box, and it is supported by HP. What more do you want ?

Raiden, check the last post (Jeff Traigle) regarding what works w/ RSA and what is required....

@ Oldschool .


Jeff recommends to install non-pthreaded version of OPenssh .. Do u have any idea where can I get this non pthreaded version .

Is the ssh link provided by you is a non pthreaded version of ssh.
