Hi Bill, Yes it does help very much. The "ar" being used is from Sun. I'll install GNUs ar and see what happens.

I don't think this is your issue. The for loop appears to be trying to ensure that each of the .o files in the list is not in the libcrypto.a archive. Normally at this point they are not there anyways. > Do you know if I should be using a > different ar other than what comes with Solaris? This may be it. After doing "./config fips" and "make", if I do the following: cd fips-1.0 ar p ../libcrypto.a aes_cbc.o I get the response: no entry aes_cbc.o in archive and the command: ar d ../libcrypto.a aes_cbc.o yields no response and an error code of 0 (echo $? is 0), where your version of ar are seems to be indicating an error as a result of the object module not being in the archive. If you enter "ar V" you should get the version of ar. On my system I see: GNU ar 2.16.1 Copyright 2005 Free Software Foundation, Inc. This program is free software; you may redistribute it under the terms of the GNU General Public License. This program has absolutely no warranty. The ar utility comes from the binutils package. Hope this helps.
