Ok, after not getting any responses originally, I got a bunch of
responses to my "Summary". Some said they hadn't seen the original, but
others said they hadn't responded because they thought others who knew
more would.

Anyway, responses were not consistent. I suppose I should have stated
that I was using the 9/04 release of Solaris 9, in case that made any
difference.

Trying to reconsile all the responses, it seems that SSL is on Solaris
9, but it may be statically linked and not available for building other
things. Someone indicated that Solaris 10 has integrated OpenSSL.

I will do my testing and install of mod_ssl next week and post results
along with who contributed.
