you have at least done a @MAKEVMS DATE and a @MAKEVMS SOFTLINKS.
A lot of things will break if you don't.
+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.
+
Test:
=====
subdirectories, libraries, header files, programs and startup command
procedures.
+N.B.: INSTALL.COM builds a new directory structure, different from
+the directory tree where you have now build OpenSSL.
+
In the [.VMS] subdirectory of the installation, you will find the
following command procedures:
SSLROOT a dotted concealed logical name pointing at the
root directory.
- SSLLIB points at the directory where CRYPTORTL.OLB and
- SSLRTL.OLB are installed.
- SSLINCLUDE points at the directory where the header files are
- installed.
- SSLEXE points at the directory where the applications are
- installed.
- SSLCERTS the place where the certificates are stored.
- SSLPRIVATE I'm actually not sure what this is used for.
+ SSLCERTS Initially an empty directory, this is the default
+ location for certificate files.
+ SSLMISC Various scripts.
+ SSLPRIVATE Initially an empty directory, this is the default
+ location for private key files.
+
+ SSLEXE Contains the openssl binary and a few other utility
+ programs.
+ SSLINCLUDE Contains the header files needed if you want to
+ compile programs with libcrypto or libssl.
+ SSLLIB Contains the OpenSSL library files (LIBCRYPTO.OLB
+ and LIBSSL.OLB) themselves.
+
+ OPENSSL Same as SSLINCLUDE. This is because the standard
+ way to include OpenSSL header files from version
+ 0.9.3 and on is:
+
+ #include <openssl/header.h>
+
+ For more info on this issue, see the INSTALL. file
+ (the NOTE in section 4 of "Installation in Detail").
+ You don't need to "deleting old header files"!!!
Backward portability:

+TODO:
+=====
+
+There are a few things that need to be worked out in the VMS version of
+OpenSSL, still:
+
+- Description files. ("Makefile's" :-))
+- Script code to link an already compiled build tree.
+- A VMSINSTALlable version (way in the future, unless someone else hacks).
+- shareable images (DLL for you Windows folks).
+
+There may be other things that I have missed and that may be desirable.
+Please send mail to <openssl-users@openssl.org> or to me directly if you
+have any ideas.
