Wei: My current guess is that if all you are trying to do is get an openssl utility that is FIPS certified, then doing ./config fips make make install from inside the top level directory of openssl-fips-1.1.1 is all that is required.
If you want an openssl utility of a more recent 0.9.7 version that the one fips-1.1.1 is based on, then you would have to do a two pass build as you outlined using one of the 0.9.7 snapshots. Is that correct everyone? Chris Marshall --- Wei Weng <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi.
