And moreover, the key I created using openssl could encrypt very small documents. Can pgp keys do more than that. There is no difference in the mathematics behind openssl keys and pgp/gpg keys. However, the key management techniques are different. The former depends on a chain of trust starting with a root certifying authority. The latter depdns on a web of trust which depends on (friend-of-a-friend)^n. The newer (gnupg2) version of gnupg can handle SSL-based and PGP-based protocols.

Windows Server has option that we can create that an user cannot have an access to change the passwd. Options: a.

In my opinion easiest to set time limit to change password by the user to some large limit say 2 years so that password remains in tact. However, the whole idea is against basic security measures.

[Ilugc] help with device mapper

Not really. The article is really about simple playing around with combining block devices using the command dmsetup. The specifics i am looking are for multipathing across 2 disk arrays and a m looking for at least some of the features of Powerpath/ DMP from the FLOSS world I don't know Powerpath/DMP. In particular, I don't really know what multipath means --- perhaps you can enlighten us! :-) Note that dmsetup is a low-level utility. To do anything even slightly complex with this it is best to use some tools which will automate things and prevent lock-ups. Depending on your needs the tools could be shell scripts, multipath-tools, lvm2 or evms.

Linux requires the device mapper tools to handle multipathing inside the kernel. This is provided by the device mapper kernel modules. The DSM is responsible for health checking of the IO path, you require the appropriate DSMs for each SAN backend (eg EMC, HDS, etc). DSM for several storage vendors is already available in /sbin/mpath*. The FOSS DSMs provide round-robin, health checking, and group priority. Vendor provided DSMs (eg Powerpath) provide additional features, but don't enjoy community backing. I've used vendor provided DSMs (Powerpath, HDLM,etc) on Windows only, and the FOSS/native drivers on Linux/Solaris. Using the DSMs, a user space multipathd daemon periodically health checks the LUNs and activates/removes the paths as necessary. Here is the sample multipath output from one of my boxes: [r...@treble sbin]# ./multipath -l prod03 (360060e801082e30004d42473) dm-0 HITACHI,DF600F [size=2.0T][features=0][hwhandler=0][rw] \_ round-robin 0 [prio=0][active] \_ 2:0:0:3 sdh 8:112 [active][undef] \_ round-robin 0 [prio=0][enabled] \_ 4:0:0:3 sdg 8:96 [active][undef] This server is running FOSS HDS dsm and shows first path as active and second path as enabled. The specifics i am looking are for multipathing across 2 disk arrays and a m looking for at least some of the features of Powerpath/ DMP from the FLOSS world I'm not sure if it's advisable to multipath across two different SAN arrays. At least I've never deployed anything in production like this! Multipath is typically done to a single SAN system with multiple controllers/fabrics/HBAs.
