Re: [cobalt-security] OpenSSH 3.1 HowTo build it from sources

[Frank Smith <fsmith@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

If you don't already have openSSL installed, you have to build and
install that first (http://www.openssl.org/).  If you do have it,
then add --with-ssl-dir=/path/to/openSSL/lib to your configure
command so ssh can find it.
