Hello,

I have a redhat WS 3.0 system that is running openssl with custom mysql install.

There was just a rpm update/patch from redhat for openssl. I applied that and mysql/openssl connections seem fine.

But my question is do I need to recomplie mysql to use the patched openssl????

As I said earlier this was a custom mysql server install. 

Complie Syntax I Used:

     shell> ./configure (default=)--prefix=/usr/local/mysql --with-extra-charsets=complex --enable-thread-safe-client --enable-local-infile --enable-assembler --disable-shared 
with-client-ldflags=-all-static  --with-mysqld-ldflags=-all-static 
(Added=)--with-vio --with-openssl --without-innodb --localstatedir=/local/db --with-mysqld-username=mysql

mysql shows that ssl is in use:

mysql> \s
blah
blah
SSL:                    Cipher in use is DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA
blah
blah
mysql> 

Also ldd on the mysqld binary shows its linked to openssl lib's. 
Please advise.... 

Thanks

Rob
