Install openssl version 1.0.1f on RHEL 7.x / RHOSP 13.

Solution In Progress - Updated -

Issue

  • All our non RHEL servers are installed with openssl version 1.01f and we would like to install the same version on our RHOSP nodes.

  • We are trying to get connect to a RHOSP/RHEL server but authentication is failing due to an issue that appears to be related to openssl.

  • How can we install an older openssl versions on RHOSP/RHEL?

  • Non RHEL server openssl version:
