There is already a patch with steganography, idea and des support for the loopback device done by Ian Goldberg. I have a patch against 2.1.22 on my web page. AFAIK those patches sadly never made it into the main stream kernel. As I understand it is allowed to import cryptography to USA and since the main kernel distribution site is in Finnland that shouldnt be a problem. You can get the patches for 2.1.22 from: http://www.physnet.uni-hamburg.de/provos/ Regards Niels Provos - PHYSnet Rechnerverbund PGP V2.6 Public key via finger or key server Niels Provos Universitaet Hamburg WWW: http://www.physnet.uni-hamburg.de/provos/ Jungiusstrasse 9 E-Mail: provos@wserver.physnet.uni-hamburg.de Germany 20355 Hamburg Tel.: +49 40 4123-2504 Fax: -6571 | ||||||||||||
