Strictly speking, everything statically linked against openssl libraries
needs to be replaced.  On a typical Cobalt appliance, this includes
Apache and OpenSSH.  Thanks to the nice guys from Netherlands, we
already have replacement OpenSSH.  With Apache, I'm afraid we'll have to
wait for Sun to come up with update (or compile it ourselves).

If you have applications linked dynamically against openssl libraries,
you need to replace the openssl shared libraries, and can leave said
applications untouched.
