I'm assuming they're using an existing OSS encryption project and didn't invent their own. According to: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_Unified_Key_Setup LUKS is a specification to facilitate interoperability between encryption software. It says dm-crypt is the reference implementation of LUKS on Linux: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dm-crypt The Fedora article makes no mention of dm-crypt, but does reference cryptsetup, which is built on dm-crypt (so it seems): http://code.google.com/p/cryptsetup/ -Tom -- Tom Metro Venture Logic, Newton, MA, USA "Enterprise solutions through open source."
