Thank you Steve - Do you know where I can get the latest 0.9.8 snapshot? Also opensll was installed as part of the latest apache win 32 binary? I suppose I would have compile apache with this latest snapshot if I wanted to work? Is there anyone else outsther who have installed the latest apache win 32 with openssl with the latest snapshot who can point me in the right direction? Thanks, Vj
