+In order to run YADIFA during boot process, add to /etc/rc.d/rc.local :

+By default this package compiles as shared binaries, but if required it is
+possible to build it statically. YADIFA' source by default links staticaly,
+because of performance considerations, but in pracatice it takes less effort
+to support shared linked binaries. But if you really need it just set
+environment variable and run SlackBuild:
+
+USESTATIC=yes ./yadifa.SlackBuild
+
+In case of using static build of YADIFA, you should re-build and re-install
+yadifa package each time openssl recieves update to keep your installation
+secure. \ No newline at end of file
