Success !!!

I downloaded 2791797 Sep 30 14:50:15 2003 openssl-0.9.7c.tar.gz LATEST from http://www.openssl.org/source/ and followed the instructions in INSTALL.W32 to compile it (Using Visual Studio .NET). This took about 10 minutes of compile time - this is pretty big!.

The compile process generated the 2 dll's in the out32dll directory, which I then tested as recommended in the INSTALL.W32 file. All tests were successful.

I then copied these dll's into the G:\Perl\site\lib\auto\Crypt\SSLeay directory, and ran the test program - it ran correctly !.

2 remaining questions for posterity :
- Is there a way/location to post my binaries for other monks to use ?
- It seems to me that the CPAN distribution of this module needs to be fixed - I'd like some consensus/direction on this issue before attempting to whine to CPAN and the author(s).
