Sorry for the late reply, I compiled nginx with statically linked
openssl without any krb5 support and it is working at least a week
without any problems, so I almost forgot the problem... The OpenSSL
and nginx are exaclty the same version (I have a CentOS 5 x86_64 rpm
if someone wants it). Something else I can check?
