With OpenSSL you get lots of applications.  I'm not sure if Kerberos also
benefits.  In the kernel there's nothing else at the moment but that's not
to say that things like gbde couldn't use it.  I also intend to use it to do
AES for wireless security protocols.

Thanks for the info! Just to confirm/clarify, without FAST_IPSEC enabled, none of the crypto hardware is used in IPSEC, correct ?
