Our network blocks Internet access & Security Gov team disallows. I don't know how to set up a yum repo which I've been enquiring for a while: anyone care to share? David is right that I'll need to use the specific format of the rpm command. I'm curious why on my server (this is my first time in this new environment), the openssl devel is x86_64 while the openssl is i686 : thought they're meant for different architecture? # rpm -q --qf "%{NAME}-%{VERSION}.%{RELEASE}.%{ARCH}\n" openssl-devel openssl-devel-0.9.8e.27.el5_10.3.x86_64 After updating it & restart the service, the *version is still a* *vulnerable* version: Any idea why? # cd /opt/opsware/etc/init.d ./opswgw-cgws1-GCLOUDMAZ start Starting opswgw: [ OK ] # ./ fake-client-early-ccs.pl localhost 443 Got server response, size: 2953 - Handshake - Server Hello - Handshake - Certificate - Handshake - Server Key Exhange - Handshake - Server Hello Done FAIL Remote host is affected # openssl version OpenSSL 0.9.8e-fips-rhel5 01 Jul 2008 On Fri, Jun 13, 2014 at 9:42 PM, Jonathan Billings <jsbillin@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > On Fri, Jun 13, 2014 at 9:23 AM, Sunhux G <sunhux@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > > I'll attempt anyway but should I use "rpm -ivh ..." or > > "rpm -Uvh ..." this time? > > > > Why aren't you using 'yum'?
