in reply to Building OpenSSL

Based on this (and your previous post), You are trying to add SSL support for Windows. The easiest way to do this is to install ActiveState Perl (which I guess you have) and to use the ppm facility to install Crypt::SSLeay from the University of Winnepeg repository. You need to do the following:

  1. ppm3
  2. rep add Winnepeg http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppms/
  3. search Crypt-SSLeay
  4. install Crypt-SSLeay

pay attention to the bit that asked about downloading the two dlls. You may need to relocate the DLLs in your PATH in order to get this to work. The DLLs can be manually downloaded from http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppms/scripts/ if you don't get it right first time.
