    i just installed the latest redhat linux enterprise server 5.0,but there is no gaim,so i had to download the gaim-1.5.0.tar.bz2,./configure,make and make install.i seemed no any problem in these stages,but when i run the commander in the shell to login,the error occur,report  "there is no ssl in my computer,the msn need the ssl to support".
    so i can't log in the msn ,i'm a freshman to the linux .who can help me ?

      Most likely RHEL already comes with gaim, you just haven't installed it yet. The easiest way is just to look at your RHEL CDs.

      If you insist to compile from source, you need to install either gnutls-dev or libnss-dev, and most likely 2.0.0 beta6 instead of the older versions.
