I removed the default libnasl that came with SuSE.
Compiled nessus-libraries
Compiled libnasl from the Tenable site. It compiled with no errors...
Compiled nessus-core...got the following error:

I attempted to compile Openssl with the ./config shared...but not joy...I
get an error message (I am attempting to compile 0.9.7e (0.9.7d is already
preloaded on SuSE 9.2Pro). Is there a way to check if the installed version
was built with shared libraries?
I apologize for starting a new thread..I was travelling and had the emails
split between my travel laptop and my home desktop (one's linux and the
other is XP..) Thought it would be easier to summarize the previous
acitivity.

The following error appears while compiling libnasl:
"Under SUSE 9.2Pro....
results from ./configure (libnasl)
checking for yyrestart in -lpcap-nessus... (cached) no
...
NO...I removed the file and the error remains..although the program did
finish compiling?
Either you haven't really done this or the output above is inaccurate
(ie, the output claims the result for yyrestart was cached). The file
you need to remove is libnasl/config.cache. Please ensure you've
removed it and rerun configure if you hadn't.
Also, what does "nessus-config --libs --cflags" report? Are you building
nessus-libraries with the accompanying libpcap or trying to use one that
you've already installed?
George Theall mentioned that I might not be using shared libraries. I
didn't set anything to not used shared libraries. nessus-libraries
compiled
cleanly. libnasl seems to have compiled mostly clean. OpenSSL compiled
with
no errors.
Unless you explicitly request it (ie, "./config shared"), OpenSSL is not
built with shared library support. So, if you truly don't have shared
libraries for OpenSSL, you will need to rebuild them and start your
Nessus install over again, starting with nessus-libraries.
