Please read the OpenSSL documentation on how to compile and install
the OpenSSL library. This generates the libeay32.dll and ssleay32.dll
files in the out32dll subdirectory in the OpenSSL home directory. If
you compiled OpenSSL static libraries (libeay32.lib, ssleay32.lib,
RSAglue.lib) they are created in the out32 subdirectory.
the OpenSSL libraries. The build process of OpenSSL generates the
libeay32.dll and ssleay32.dll files in the out32dll subdirectory in
the OpenSSL home directory. OpenSSL static libraries (libeay32.lib,
ssleay32.lib, RSAglue.lib) are created in the out32 subdirectory.
Run the 'vcvars32.bat' file to get the proper environment variables
set. The vcvars32.bat file is part of the Microsoft development
environment and you may find it in 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual
Studio\vc98\bin' if you installed Visual C/C++ 6 in the default
directory.

Before running nmake define the OPENSSL_PATH environment variable with
the root/base directory of OpenSSL, for example:
set OPENSSL_PATH=c:\openssl-0.9.6b
Then run 'nmake vc-ssl' or 'nmake vc-ssl-dll' in the curl's root
Then run 'nmake vc-ssl' or 'nmake vc-ssl-dll' in curl's root
directory. 'nmake vc-ssl' will create a libcurl static and dynamic
libraries in the lib subdirectory, as well as a statically linked
version of curl.exe in the scr subdirectory. This statically linked
version of curl.exe in the src subdirectory. This statically linked

'nmake vc-ssl-dll' creates the libcurl dynamic library and
