error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.4:

Asked by accessint in Linux Administration, Linux Setup

Tags: shared, loading, while, error

Let me preface my question by saying that I am relatively new to linux.
I recently installed a program that is failing to run because of the following error.  
 "error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"
I believe that we are running Fedora Core 6.
I have searched the harddrive and found the following files which I assume are just newer versions of the same file:
./lib/libssl.so.6
./lib/libssl.so.0.9.8b
Would it be ok to create a link from /lib/libssl.so.4 to one of the files listed or would the different file versions cause my program to fail or become unstable?  If it is ok, which file would you link to?
Thanks,
