Hi,

Im hoping someone can help me with an install of Pound on RH9. I have
installed OpenSSH OK, but I get the following error when trying to make.

gcc -DF_CONF=\"/usr/local/etc/pound.cfg\" -g -O2 -DAEMON -D_REENTRANT

-pthread -Wstrict-prototypes -pipe -c -o pound.o pound.c

In file included from pound.c:183:

pound.h:181:2: #error "Pound needs openssl/ssl.h"

In file included from pound.c:183:

pound.h:347: parse error before "SSL_CTX"

pound.h:347: warning: no semicolon at end of struct or union

pound.h:348: warning: data definition has no type or storage class

pound.h:459: parse error before '*' token

followed by a load of ---

{standard input}: Assembler messages:

input}:158: Error: symbol `__c' is already defined {standard input}:164:

I initially tried the RPM package, and this looked like it installed, but I
couldn't find the executable. Im a bit new to Linux, so I hope someone can
help.

Regards

Dean.

You don't need to find the executable, just start it with 'service pound
start'. If you want to see it anyway, it's in /usr/sbin/. If you want it
to start on system boot, do a 'chkconfig pound on'.

Thanks Simon, but the executable isnt in /usr/sbin, Ive tried installing
with both the RPM and the source.

If you have my rpm from http://www.invoca.ch/pub/packages/pound/current/,
then it's a source rpm which you have to compile first. Try
rpmbuild --rebuild pound-20040705-1.src.rpm
to get a binary rpm which you can install and run.

Thanks Simon, that fixed it.
