Installing Curl with SSL support

Hello Everyone,

I just tried to install curl with ssl support enabled on a sco
openserver release 5 machine and got a error
when I ran the configure script from the command line like this:
     % ./configure --with-ssl=/usr/local/ssl

The configure script bailed out on me at this point:
    checking for Kerberos4 support is requested... no
    checking for CRYPTO_lock in -lcrypto... no
    checking for CRYPTO_add_lock in -lcrypto... no
    configure: error: OpenSSL libs and/or directories were not found
where specified.

First of all, I installed openSSL version 0.9.6 successfully on this
machine and the libcrypto.a and libssl.a files are in the
/usr/local/ssl/lib directory on the machine. I tried using nm with the
libcrypto.a file, redirecting this to a file
and then searching this file for CRYPTO_lock and CRYPTO_add_lock. I
found both and both were defined in this file.

So does anyone know why the configure script for curl can't seem to
locate these?

As a side note, I installed openSSL using the custom script on the
machine and I received no errors.

Thanks in advance,
~~Nick
