Hi,
I am trying to install Win32OpenSSL-0_9_8g.exe on Windows 2003 server with
an uattended install. I saw the exchange shown below at
http://www.nabble.com/OpenSSL-executable-for-Windows-2003-(32-bit)-td19367245.html
. I downloaded Win32OpenSSL-0_9_8g.exe and Win32OpenSSL-0_9_8h.exe from
http://www.slproweb.com/. I tried installing each with the following
options: "/silent" and "/verysilent /sp-". I get the same warning message
about closing the any open command prompts before continuing with the
installation. Is there a a version that will install silently, and if so
where can I download it.
Thank You,

This list isn't the place for such questions. (Thankfully, I lurk
around here though).
To answer the question though, the installer technology used is
InnoSetup. Unfortunately, you appear to have stumbled onto a bug with
the main script. Even with '/verysilent /sp-', the message box doesn't
get suppressed. I've (hopefully) fixed this and uploaded new binaries.
Try those.
