Regarding (from Joy Leima): I am using openssl-1.0.1c.tar.gz & openssl-fips-2.0.2.tar.gz. ...
The ms\do_fips resulted in a SUCCESS. The nmake had issues. Here is the last few lines. The error: link /nologo /subsystem:console /opt:ref /debug /dll /map /base:0xFB00000 /out:out32dll\libeay32.dll /def:ms/LIBEAY32.def @C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Temp\nmAC.tmp LINK : warning LNK4044: unrecognized option '/-----'; ignored LINK : fatal error LNK1117: syntax error in option '' First stage Link failure at C:\workspace\CID_Windows_TRUNK\vmsight\probe\common\build\..\..\common\grd\tntCommon\openssl\fips\bin\fipslink.pl line 55. NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'perl' : return code '0x5d' Stop. You might look in the file nmAC.tmp listed in your output to see if you find any problems with it. I would assume that bad syntax is in there and might give you an idea where to apply the fix. Also, what tools are you using to build openssl & the fips module? Visual Studio? What version? Thanks, Lester
