 Description   

If Enterprise is started without the adequate version of OpenSSL, it will generate errors like the following in the shell session:

ms/dist/msmongo/PROJ/emdb/2.6.0/bin/mongod: /usr/lib64/libssl.so.10: no version information available (required by /ms/dist/msmongo/PROJ/emdb/2.6.0/bin/mongod)
/ms/dist/msmongo/PROJ/emdb/2.6.0/bin/mongod: /usr/lib64/libcrypto.so.10: no version information available (required by /ms/dist/msmongo/PROJ/emdb/2.6.0/bin/mongod)
/ms/dist/msmongo/PROJ/emdb/2.6.0/bin/mongod: /usr/lib64/libcrypto.so.10: no version information available (required by /ms/dist/msmongo/PROJ/emdb/2.6.0/bin/mongod)

These messages are warnings, are benign, and can be ignored. They stem from the version of OpenSSL in the OS not including versioning information.

The way to fix the issue is to upgrade openSSL.

Need to document:

  1. that the warnings are benign and can be ignored
  2. that the warnings will go away with an upgrade to OpenSSL
  3. the minimum version to upgrade to.
