When I start samba, samba don't start because some links not exist : 

Starting SMB services: /usr/local/samba/sbin/smbd: error while loading shared
libraries: libssl.so.0.9.7: cannot open shared object file: No such file or
directory
/usr/local/samba/sbin/nmbd: error while loading shared libraries:
libssl.so.0.9.7: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
                                                           [ECHOUE]

Step to reproduce : 
compile openssl with prefix = /usr/local/openssl
compile samba : 

export CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/openssl/include -I/usr/local/openldap/include"
export LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/openssl/lib -L/usr/local/openldap/lib"
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/local/openssl/lib:/usr/local/openldap/lib"

tar xvzf samba-3.x.xx.tar.gz
cd samba-3.0.20rc1
cd source
./configure --with-ldap --with-acl-support --with-configdir=/etc/samba
--sysconfdir=/etc/samba --with-ssl
make
make install
/etc/rc.d/init.d/smb restart

work

restart server

if you modify smb init script for add : 
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/local/openssl/lib:/usr/local/openldap/lib"

smbd start
but if I excute ldd :
