Compiling without SSL

Hello all,

I recently compiled Curl 7.19 on a Redhat Enterprise 4 server (Test
server) and it seemed to have compiled correctly.

curl --version

curl 7.19.0 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.19.0 OpenSSL/0.9.7a
zlib/1.2.1.2 libidn/0.5.6

Protocols: tftp ftp telnet dict ldap http file https ftps

Features: IDN IPv6 Largefile NTLM SSL libz

I then compiled the same version on our production server (same OS) and
get this.

curl --version

curl 7.19.0 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.19.0

Protocols: tftp ftp telnet dict http file

Features: Largefile

It appears that Curl did not compile with SSL support and other
supported libraries and I don't know why.

Here is an excerpt from the config.log that give some info for SSL
support. I would have sent the entire log but it was very large.

| #include <libssh2.h>

configure:31443: result: no

configure:31476: checking for libssh2.h

I read the instructions for installing curl it states to find your
openssl installation path and compile it with the appropriate option. I
cannot find where openssl is installed since it was an RPM. I am also
not sure why the test box compiled fine and prod failed. Any help would
surely be appreciated.

Thanks.
