You must download the openssl-fips.1.2.0.tar.gz package, and follow the instructions in the companion Security Policy *precisely*. That is the only package that can build a fipscanister.o.

And to fix the fips problem in your source tree: 'make clean' -Kyle H On Wed, Jan 13, 2010 at 6:16 PM, Charles Belov <docor...@sonic.net> wrote: > I attempted to build openssl using the FreeBSD port of openssl. > > Options are set using "make config" as follows: > > Options for openssl 0.9.8l_2 > [ ] I386 Use optimzed assembler for 80386 > [X] SSE2 Use runtime SSE2 detection > [X] ZLIB Build with zlib compression > > and the Makefile shows > > PORTVERSION= 0.9.8l > PORTREVISION= 2 > > Whe I tried to "make" this a few days ago, I believe there were two > additional options: FIPS and SCTP.
