Thread: Info for Solaris-FAQ and prob Unixware-FAQ

Hi Peter,

I've been testing the compilation process of 7.1RC3 with the newest
release of OpenSSL (0.9.6a) today.  The des_encrypt() namespace conflict
is no longer present on Solaris 8 (SPARC nor INTEL).  So it looks like
the OpenSSL guys have renamed the conflicting functions.

Is this something worth mentioning in the Solaris-FAQ (and probably the
Unixware-FAQ)?

Regards and best wishes,

Justin Clift
