I reread this this moring and Dave is right, he just confused me :) You need to set up the MSYS/MinGW toolchain instead of Microsoft C to build at least the FIPS canister. The fact that you installed cygwin already is a good start, but you need to point your path to reference the MSYS/MinGW tools first. ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List openssl-users@openssl.org Automated List Manager majord...@openssl.org
