I've set myself up encrypted swap, and am wondering which cipher will be fastest.
My choices are AES, serpent, twofish, or blowfish. I tried out xor too, but It looked like it was SEVERLY vunerable to a plaintext attack (creating a new swapfile to caculate the xor key). Why bother encrypting my swap? Losta passwords go in there in plaintext, easily recoverable with a boot disk. And if anyone wants it, I wrote a simple shell script to configure an encrypted loopback file with a random password, create a swap filesystem on it, and mount it as swap. _______________________________________________ vox-tech mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech
