I tried to do what you said, but the install still fails.

C:OpenSSL\lib\ now contains libeay32.a, libeay32.def, ssleay32.a, and ssleay32.def. I try to run the install command and get the following:

Cannot determine perl version info from lib/Net/SSLeay.pm
Cannot determine license info from lib/Net/SSLeay.pm
*** Found OpenSSL-0.9.8g installed in C:\OpenSSL
*** Be sure to use the same compiler and options to compile your OpenS
+SL, perl,
    and Net::SSLeay. Mixing and matching compilers is not supported.
Do you want to run external tests?

It then spews a bunch of errors again, and exits with the following:

Is there some environment variable I need to modify or some other file I need to copy?

I appreciate the help.
