Hi,

You might take a look at AT&T's cfs for another, NFS-style approach at implementing file encryption. CFS' strenght is that it is relativly portable and also has some kind of key handling. It uses only DES as encryption but you might hack it to use IDEA, too. CFS is only an usermode solution but given the performance of DES/IDEA encryption this isn't a problem.
AT&T's "ammunition" CFS is available on ftp.funet.fi ...
