RE: runtime requirements for IISCosign

["Brett Lomas" <b.lomas@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Jarod,

thanks for that... I am using the InstallShield Multiplatform 5, which
appears not to like the files I got from you :(

Also, I am trying to compile the CoSign IIS project, which relies on the
libsnet. Where can I get the project for this? I see it is included in the
cosign server source but I am wondering if there is the VS .net 2003 (or
equiv) project files I can use :) - perhaps these could also be included in
the cosign CVS to make a compilation easier??

Is there anything else I am going to need to compile it. I have already
compiled the openssl for Win32, what about the MS XML thingy?

Also, you may or may not know the security bulletin release for OpenSSL
suggesting upgrading to OpenSSL 0.9.7d (exploits I think)

Thanks for your help.

Brett

Brett,

Sorry for the delayed response.  I was out sick for a few days and am 
working through my e-mail in reverse chronological order. :)

I did a quick zip of the Installshield Project 7 files.  So if anything is 
missing, please let me know.  You (or anyone else) can grab them from here 
for now.  <http://www-personal.umich.edu/~jarod/projects/cosign/>

MD5 sum: 37bc174c4c9aab2fb5cbfbe7a8f80a14

Note there are two items that will be unzipped.  One is the actual 
Installshield project the other is a Visual Studio .NET project.  The 
latter is just a custom dialog box I put together since Installshield 
didn't quite provide the customizable dialog I thought would be useful. 
You'll also probably want the contents of the latest IISCosign installer 
itself.  (The IS project undoubtedly points to files in directories that 
aren't on your machine.)

I'll work on getting this into CVS to make this easier in the future.  Any 
critiques, updates, or suggestions are appreciated!
