PS: There's a paper on cryptanalyzing CFS on my homepage below. I got to successfully use classical cryptanalysis on a relatively modern system! That is a rare joy. CFS really needs a re-write, there's no real good alternatives for cross-platform filesystem encryption to my knowledge.

Take a look at ecryptfs before rewriting cfs: http://sourceforge.net/projects/ecryptfs
Nice, but linux-only and requires special kernel support. cfs supports lots and lots of different OSs and doesn't require kernel modes. So far as I know, in this regard cfs is unique among cryptographic filesystems. ciao, -- -- Jonathan Thornburg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Max-Planck-Institut fuer Gravitationsphysik (Albert-Einstein-Institut), Golm, Germany, "Old Europe" http://www.aei.mpg.de/~jthorn/home.html "Washing one's hands of the conflict between the powerful and the powerless means to side with the powerful, not to be neutral." -- quote by Freire / poster by Oxfam --------------------------------------------------------------------- The Cryptography Mailing List Unsubscribe by sending "unsubscribe cryptography" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
