compile error: cryptknockd.c:470:17: error: storage size of ‘ctx’ isn’t known

since ssl lib API changed, the source code need be fixed

gcc cryptknockd.c -o cryptknockd -lssl -lcrypto -lpcap

@jingkang99, thanks a lot for your issue. Do you have any ideas what lines needs to be changed to fix it?

@jingkang99, I'm pretty bad in C and C++ programming as I'm still a beginner but apparently the fix needs to be applied in:

• cryptknock.c - Method encrypt_password - Line 243
• cryptknockd.c - Method decrypt_pass - Line 468

All other methods are not related to openssl.
