The problem seems to be that SSLeay does not call SSL_library_init() before it calls SSL_CTX_new(), which mades SSL_CTX_new() fail giving back NULL, and then calls SSL_CTX_ctrl() again with the NULL. I'm reassigning this to libcrypt-ssleay-perl. Kurt -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
