I tested the 1.0.0-s1 set from your web-page, but it has exactly the same
problem when running the tests:
....
seed-ecb
seed-ecb base64
seed-ofb
seed-ofb base64
test normal x509v1 certificate
testing X509 conversions
p -> d
p -> n
p -> p
d -> d
n -> d
p -> d
d -> n
n -> n
p -> n
d -> p
n -> p
p -> p
%BACKUP-E-OPENIN, error opening $DISK8:[joukj.PUBLIC.ssh.OPENSSL.openssl-1^.0^.0
_s1.test]f.p;1 as input
-RMS-E-FNF, file not found
The reason is that the case of the argument x509 in the openssl command in
command procedure tx509.com is wrong and thus the file is not created.
Changing line 9 of tx509.com form
$ cmd := mcr 'exe_dir'openssl x509
into
$ cmd := "mcr ''exe_dir'openssl x509"
solves the problem.
Similar changes should be applied to some other procedures. The changed
procedures are on my web-page (for version 1.0.0)
