Hi,

1) Where should the no-asm option be given? With the Configure command or the 
do_fips command? I have used no-asm with Configure command.

I have built as follows:

perl Configure VC-WIN32 no-asm
vcvars32.bat
ms\do_fips

2) out32dll\fips_test_suite gives the following:

FIPS-mode test application

1. Non-Approved cryptographic operation test...
        a. Included algorithm (D-H)...successful
2. Automatic power-up self 
test...ERROR:2d06c071:lib=45,func=108,reason=113:file=.\fips\fips.c:line=274:
FAILED!

Did you use the correct command to build the validated tarball i.e.:

ms\fo_fips no-asm

What happens when you do.

out32dll\fips_test_suite

afterwards? I don't have a non-sse2 WIN32 platform to test on.

Steve.
