I checked it out and it looked like a nightmare.  Appeared to only work
for 2.4.7, had many problems (like if you moved the file you had the
potential to corrupt it).

However there was a link to loop-AES, which is a dream.  Works with 2.2
and 2.4 kernels, has patches for util-kernel so that mount will ask you
for your password, etc.  Nice!

I have it running now, and it didn't take 20mins to get working.

I just wish there was one that would tie in with my GPG key so it all
worked together.
