First thing is to make sure you have got the openssl pacakage installed. 
And the corresponding header files.

rpm -qa | grep ssl

(executed as root) should return something like
openssl-0.9.7a-33.4a
openssl-devel-0.9.7a-33.4a

If not,

yum install openssl openssl-devel

should install the missing packages.

Then try to run ./configure again.

HTH,
