Hi J.P.,
 
OpenSSL binary version 0.9.6b is available at many places. I once downloaded the following
For libs:    openssl-0.9.6b-lib.zip
For dlls:    openssl-0.9.6b-bin.zip
 
If you want you may download the source also. But then you need perl to compile it.
 
Source:             openssl-engine-0.9.6g.tar.gz
Documentation:  openssl-0.9.6b-doc.zip
 
 
I was able to compile OpenSSL source code. But It is equally good if you get the binaries.
 
 
I was also not able to figure out how to compile Apache with OpenSSL. When I floated this question  I got the foolwing reply

Hi,

 

I would like to use OpenSSL with Apache2 (version2.0.40). Following the Apache documentation I need OpenSSL and MODSSL.

On www.modssl.org I found a binary distribution for Apache-2.0.39-Mod_SSL-0.9.6d-Win32.

However I can’t find a binary distribution (win32) of OpenSSL on www.openssl.org. Only source
code in tarball format. So my questions are:

 

 1. Do I need to use version 0.9.6d or can I use the latest version ? If the interface didn’t change
     it might work with the mod_ssl binary.

 2. Is there really no binary? Do I need to download the source code and compile it myself ? How
     do I read tarball files on a Win32 platform ?

 

Thanks for any reaction,

J.P.
