Compling with Cygwin and error openssl

Hi everyone,
Yes, I'm new to the whole running your own mu*, but I would like to learn. I have Cygwin running on my computer with the pennmush in my home folder. The problem is that I'm having trouble compiling the pennmush that download here. The problem is with the OpenSSL. I have downloaded it, put it in the folder with the pennmush and downloaded everything with OpenSSL in Cygwin.



Any help would be greatly thanked.

configure: error: The OpenSSL library must be installed to run PennMUSH.

The PennMUSH here is rather old. I suggest going to the PennMUSH site and getting a more up-to-date one.
