Steve: Thanks for your response.!
1) Will there be an issue if we change the names from ssleay32.lib -> ssl.lib and libeayfips32.lib -> crypto.lib . I remember reading on some forms that changing the names of the library which are generated by fips build does cause issue. Is this true..? 2) Also while building fips, does it support buiding binaries with debug, non-debug, single thread and mutitreaded like how openssl does..? or will there be any issues. I could not find this in the user guide docs. If there is another reference please point to that.

This is no longer the case and VC++ can be used throughout. Note that you can also use a recent 0.9.8 snapshot as the FIPS changes have now been merged into 0.9.8. > 2) Are the steps which I followed to build the FIPS capable openssl steps > right..? > Well it is a test version and not validated at present, but yes they are correct.
