[Nagiosplug-help] check_http; SSL not available

[z bushman]

I just ran thru the Nagios/Fedora quickstart installation process and am having a problem with the check_http plugin and SSL. I run the plugin as follows:

./check_http -H www.bankofamerica.com -w 10 -c 30 -t 60 -S and what comes back is as follows: Invalid option - SSL is not available

If I run the command without the -S option, it works but is not checking SSL.

I tried installing openssl before I configured and make(d) the plugins, same result. 

Has anyone had this problem with Nagios 3.0b1 and the 1.4.9 plugins?
