No, but now I did. That helped a lot and I should get something running. I struggled with setting up the plugin.conf a bit. The Module Parameter for a (dbcrypt) plugin seems to have no effect. Looks like the plugin must be in the plugins subfolder and the path given via the Module Parameter is ignored. At least I couldn't get a ' ALTER DATABASE ENCRYPT WITH ....' call to work without having the plugin in the plugins folder.

There are 2 pages re dbcrypt. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mobile security can be enabling, not merely restricting.
