Hello,

I just want to ask for  help on a point.

I have openssl 0.9.8r development version and just build the FIPS 1.2.3 
modules.When I call FIPS_mode_set(1) in my application , it always returns 0.

What I have done so far is the following:
*I have set up perl
*I have downloaded the openssl fips 1.2.3.tar.gz and open that manually
*build that with the command ms\do_fips no-asm
*I have found the file fipscanister.lib and linked that to my application

Now I have no error while building the applicaiton or calling the function but 
it always returns 0. And when call the FIPS_mode it is 0.

I am using Microsoft Visual Studio2010. My operating system is Windows XP 32 
bits.

Could ypu please give an idea , am I missing something??

and also on web I have found that I am supposed to use  fipslink.pl to 
statically link FIPS module to my application. and do not know how to do that? 
or may it be the problem??
Many thanks and regards,
Banu
