You should be able to install it in your home directory,
if this lib has a configure script then you should be able to
run it like
| Code: |
./configure --prefix=/home/yourusername/libssh
make && make install

i know why you wanna do that :-) i tried to compile it in another dir, sure, it can be done with ./configure --prefix=/dir/to/libssh but it won't install properly, you get an error during the compilation of some programs wich you normaly don't get if the library is installed on uid0, so i figured out that you just have to install it under uid0, or perhaps i didn't find the right way (yet) ;) |

SirVix it's nice you revealed your reasons 
But libssh is not used just in brutessh ( a great penetration testing and password security checking tool BTW), libssh is more than that as they say on : http://www.0xbadc0de.be/index.php?part=libssh#menu2

The ssh library was designed to be used by programmers needing a working SSH implementation by the mean of a library. The complete control of the client is made by the programmer.
With libssh, you can remotely execute programs, transfer files, use a secure and transparent tunnel for your remote programs. With its Secure FTP implementation, you can play with remote files easily, without third-party programs others than libcrypto (from openssl).

libssh is not even close to a brute force library, it is just an implementaion of the SSH protocol that can be used in other programs.
Whatever programs use it and how you use the programs is your business. |

oh and BTW if you want to compile a program to use libssh installed in other directory then the usual ( /usr/lib , /usr/local/lib ) directories you can do:
| Code: |
gcc yourprogram.c -o yourprogram -L/path/to/libssh/lib -I/path/to/libssh/include

i think you should have used it like this :
| Code: |
gcc -o program program.c -L/home/customer/customer/libssh/lib -I/home/customer/customer/libssh/include/
