There are lots of encryption tools in OpenSolaris, what is it you are
looking for specifically ? File encryption, file system encryption,
disk encryption ?
I need some cross platform encryption tool for encrypting an USB Flash
drive for example (file based encryption can be OK, if cross platform
file system encryption is not available).
GnuPG is in build 130 when it comes out.
For TrueCrypt see:
http://blogs.sun.com/mbp/entry/truecrypt_on_opensolaris
For file system encryption, I'm adding encryption to ZFS see:
http://hub.opensolaris.org/bin/view/Project+zfs-crypto/
For disk/volume encryption see lofiadm(1M) and lofi(7D) - this is
similar to cryptoloop on Linux systems.
There is also simple file encryption using /usr/bin/encrypt, or you
can use the OpenSSL cli tools as well.
Thanks. Are there any plans to include mcrypt in OpenSolaris
distribution too?
Regards,
Hillel.
