Yes, I'm not sure if the name should be different or not. As far as I can see, SNMP doesn't actually use OpenSSL except that PHP must be linked with OpenSSL if SNMP is. Same goes for LDAP which may use SSL, and IMAP that uses --with-imapssl. In MySQL there's also a check for HAVE_OPENSSL, it didn't compile when I set it though. I think the main question is: Should we have a common ssl-option that enables ssl-extension and SSL enhancements all over, or should we break it up in separate options. I'm not sure why one would want to set them separately though. BTW, the reason I called the extension openssl and not ssl, is that it won't build with just any ssl-library. Stig
