I've just gone through this process here. I've done the following: Download MinGW-5.1.3.exe from SourceForge. Donwload MSYS-1.0.10.exe from SourceForge. Run MingW-5.1.3.exe. Select "download and install" from first Dialog. Select "current version". When it asks for a list of components select "MinGW base tools", "g++ compiler" and "MinGW make". It should install successfully. Run MSYS-1.0.10.exe and when the post install window comes up tell it where you installed MinGW. Select menu option MingW->MSYS->msys Do: tar xvzf /path/to/openssl-fips-1.1.2.tar.gz cd openssl-fips-1.1.2 ./config fips make make install The reason for the process is that it has to follow the Unix build to the letter for the 1.1.X FIPS module. For the (not yet validated) 1.2 Module you can use VC++ for the whole thing. Steve. -- Dr Stephen N. Henson.
