If the test programs work (in the out32 directory) then you should
look elsewhere for the problem.
Now don't take me wrong, I understand how hard it is to switch from
one system to another system and get back in the groove again on
all the programming details. However I don't think it is really wise to
choose such an area as encryption, etc. as a good starting point.
There are all sorts of issues totally unrelated to programming that
you should be aware of, in addition to knowing how, why and the
drawbacks of using portions of the OpenSSL code. Even if this is
for your own enjoyment, and you could care less about all the other
issues, OpenSSL presents a challenge to even the best of
programmers.
Take note of some of the questions being asked on this list; I don't
even know what the hell half of them is even about.

doh! i completley missed that directory cheers.
quick question though when i try to link to the sslevy32.lib i get:-
CVTRES : fatal error CVT1107: D:\openssl\openssl-0.9.6\out32dll\ssleay32.lib is corrupt
D:\openssl\openssl-0.9.6\out32dll\ssleay32.lib : fatal error LNK1123: failure during
conversion to COFF: file invalid or corrupt
Error executing link.exe.
any ideas?
i've been working on other os's for the past few years so im rusty as hell with
windoze your help is appriciated.
