hello, i just built fips 1.2, and then built a FIPs capable OpenSSL 0.9.8l as a shared lib. I then took my application, added in FIPS_mode_set(1), and it passed. But then i realized i did not switch over in my make file to use "CC=fipsld" It still used "CC=gcc -fPIC".
Is the reason why it worked is perhaps OpenSSL compiled with fipsld, therefore i do not need to use it in my application? i just want to make sure i understand the role of the fipsld in case i am getting a false positive... thank you, -=- adam grossman ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List openssl-users@openssl.org Automated List Manager majord...@openssl.org
