Shankar, When you have trouble using CVS, please search the net for information or a good book about it, because many projects use this revision control system.
You will not find CMS in any 0.9.8 source tree; you will need to use OpenSSL 0.9.9 sources - which are available through CVS or, when you must, through the 0.9.9 source tree snapshots published at the OpenSSL ftp site (see 'sources' -> snapshots ftp on the OPenSSL web site). CMS comes with a sample app and documentation (in the doc/ directory in the form of .pod files, which will be processed when you build OpenSSL - Perl is mandatory then). Documentation is available in the form of a sample application and accompanying documentation in 0.9.9: doc/apps/cms.pod is the documentation master copy. apps/cms.c is the sample app source code. Tip: For maximum ease of first use, get yourself a Linux or BSD box and build the OpenSSL sources and documentation on that one first - that is the platform where almost everybody else is working on, so you'll have the least number of surprises there. If you don't know how to use Linux, find someone who does or get a book about it. Once done on such a UNIX machine, move to Win32/Windows and rebuild the 0.9.9 snapshot/CVS source tree there. I give you this advice because the Windows platform can become quite cumbersome once you tread outside the Microsoft-published development realm and it doesn't look to me like you have the experience there yet. Added benefit is that when you build it on a Linux box, I hope you will quite quickly be able to produce a working CMS test application, which you can use to verify [part of] your operation. Last but certainly not least: do not mix 0.9.9 with 0.9.8 unless you know what you are doing.
