We're already looking at that (btw, IIRC loop-aes is included into the 
cryptoapi of kerneli.org). The problem is what Dariush points: if your 
machine has the pass to mount the filesystem, someone can put the HD in 
another machine, remove the root password, put the HD back in my original 
server, boot it, login as root and access whatever content we have there. Or 
just find the script that mounts the ciphered filesystem, look at its 
password and mount the ciphered fs himself :-(

Thanks a lot!!
