I imagine it would be challenging to pull off encryption well with appliance hardware. The first problem is getting the software to do it. (Plus all the automation you've previously discussed to set up the keys on boot.) The second challenge is having the horsepower to perform the encryption. Not impossible if they chose their embedded CPU well, but unlikely to be optimized for that. -Tom -- Tom Metro The Perl Shop, Newton, MA, USA "Predictable On-demand Perl Consulting." http://www.theperlshop.com/
