c:\> ruby -ropenssl -e "OpenSSL::PKey::DSA.new"
-e:1:in `initialize': wrong number of arguments (0 for 1) (ArgumentError)
         from -e:1:in `new'
         from -e:1


I think we had this discussion during RubyConf2004; I have been unable 
to locate and install a proper OpenSSL lib.

Should the 1-click installer include SSL libs that Just Work?  I may 
have screwed up my libs in October while trying to get SSH running, but 
I recently installed the latest 1-click 1.8.2, so I was hoping it would 
have been bundled with the correct SSL lib.

Has anyone gotten Net:SSH working with the 1-click version?


Thanks,
