Thread-topic: Need 'configure' directive to statically link openssl's libssl.a and libcrypto.a

Version: Apache httpd version 2.2.10

Platform: AIX 5.3

SSL Version: OpenSSL 0.9.8f

Try as I might, I can't figure out what directive to give "configure" to enable

statically linking libssl.a and libcrypto.a into httpd.

In case it makes a difference, the OpenSSL was obtained from IBM,

via the "AIX Toolbox Cryptographic Content" link off of their Linux Toolbox download page.

Lastly, here is a link to the answer I got from the comp.unix.aix list telling me that static linking is possible:

Any help would be appreciated.
