+Requirements:
+=============
+
+To build and install OpenSSL, you will need:
+
+ * DEC C or some other ANSI C compiler.  VAX C is *not* supported.
+   [Note: OpenSSL has only been tested with DEC C.  Compiling with 
+    a different ANSI C compiler may require some work]
+
+Checking the distribution:
+==========================
+
+There have been reports of places where the distribution didn't quite get
+through, for example if you've copied the tree from a NFS-mounted Unix
+mount point.
+
+The easiest way to check if everything got through as it should is to check
+for one of the following files:
+
+	[.CRYPTO]OPENSSLCONF.H_IN
+	[.CRYPTO]OPENSSLCONF_H.IN
+
+They should never exist both at once, but one of them should (preferably
+the first variant).  If you can't find any of those two, something went
+wrong.
+
+The best way to get a correct distribution is to download the gzipped tar
+file from ftp://ftp.openssl.org/source/, use GUNZIP to uncompress it and
+use VMSTAR to unpack the resulting tar file.
+
+GUNZIP is available in many places on the net.  One of the distribution
+points is the WKU software archive, ftp://ftp.wku.edu/vms/fileserv/ .
+
+VMSTAR is also available in many places on the net.  The recommended place
+to find information about it is http://www.free.lp.se/vmstar/ .

+Logical names:
+==============
+
+There are a few things that can't currently be given through the command
+line.  Instead, logical names are used.
+
+Currently, the logical names supported are:
+
+      OPENSSL_NO_ASM    with value YES, the assembler parts of OpenSSL will
+                        not be used.  Instead, plain C implementations are
+                        used.  This is good to try if something doesn't work.
+      OPENSSL_NO_'alg'  with value YES, the corresponding crypto algorithm
+                        will not be implemented.  Supported algorithms to
+                        do this with are: RSA, DSA, DH, MD2, MD4, MD5, RIPEMD,
+                        SHA, DES, MDC2, CR2, RC4, RC5, IDEA, BF, CAST, HMAC,
+                        SSL2.  So, for example, having the logical name
+                        OPENSSL_NO_RSA with the value YES means that the
+                        LIBCRYPTO.OLB library will not contain an RSA
+                        implementation.
 
-Note 3: Alpha users will get a number of informational messages when
-        compiling the [.asm]vms.mar file in the BN (bignum) part of
-        the crypto library.  These can be safely ignored.
