You have to do it from each application. openssl is an application that statically links the crypto libraries. Even if you used the dynamic crypto libraries (so or dll depending on your platform). you still have to set it. Look at the FIPS_140-2-opensslUserGuide. There are a couple version out there, but all have the basic question you are asking. Also, make sure you read the FIPS_1402-opensslSecurityPolicy document.
Last, you may find this link helpful for testing and validating: http://openssl.com/fips/2.0/platforms/ for help with specific platforms. -- View this message in context: http://openssl.6102.n7.nabble.com/Libcrypto-in-FIPS-mode-tp44701p44710.html Sent from the OpenSSL - Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org Development Mailing List [email protected] Automated List Manager [email protected]
