I run Debian 64bit testing and have installed the following packages: apt-get install tcl8.5-dev libssl-dev openssl. I've unpacked and patched eggdrop1.6.19.tar.gz + eggdrop-1.6.19-ssl-rootie.patch.gz. Next out: ./configure && make config && make. Made myself a decent eggdrop.conf and setup an efnetserver. Works like a charm. Next out is using ssl part. Added "set use-ssl 1" and supplied a linknet ircserver on port 7000. Now bot don't even wanna connect to a server. Tried several. Anyone else tried eggdrop+ssl on a 64bit Linux install with luck?. I have an old Debian stable box running 64bit on an Amd cpu and openssl 0.9.7 instead of 0.9.8 in this new server I'm trying out. That works so could it be to recent openssl?.
If I comment out "set use ssl 1" it connects (but fails since server wants a ssl auth). Been trying to play with openssl 0.9.7 from src on this machine with no luck. Kinda defeats the purpose of a package maintaned os too .

This is as far as I get with my ssl bot. Been doing eggdrops since the day of dawn. I have a box with amd cpu and 64bit but openssl 0.9.7 instead of 0.9.8 (latest) on this current machine. I tried tcl8.3/8.4/8.5 with no luck either. Degrading openssl is not really an option here securitywise. Any tips?.

This amd 64bit Linux install works perfectly with eggdrop + ssl patch (1.6.1.

I even tried this version and one version lower on my new machine with no luck.
