Hello List,
I was curious about the diffs between the FIPS distribution of OpenSSL
and the "standard" distribution.
It seems like the FIPS tar file is based on an entirely different
versioning system, but I'm assuming there is a table somewhere that
maps this version back to a 0.9.x release version, but this is just a
guess.
I guess the basic question I have is this:
If I have an application that utilizes OpenSSL 0.9.8j and all the
functions seem to work fine, and then I realize I need a version of my
application that will
be undergoing FIPS certification, can I just rebuild my application,
pointing at the FIPS openssl libraries or do the API calls into
openssl change (like adding a "FIPS_" prefix in front of each normal
openssl API call).
Thanks!
Randy
