Hi, the next crypto patch for 2.1.124 is available. The idea is to
collect all crypto patches so that using crypto in the kernel will be
easier than today.

The patch is available from:

ftp://verden.pvv.org/pub/linux/kerneli/v2.1/patch-int-2.1.124.2.gz

Currently the patch includes the latest unofficial ENskip support and
crypto-modules for the loopback filesystems (twofish, blowfish,
cast-128 and a not-yet-ported idea). If anybody know of a
crypto-patch for the 2.1-series that I haven't included, please
contact me.

On the ftp-site, the directory /pub/linux/kernel is a normal
kernel-mirror while /pub/linux/kerneli is a kernel-mirror plus the
international kernel patch. You should find all utilities needed for
using crypto in the kernel in in /pub/linux/kerneli/net-source/.

Extra patches needed for mount and ENskip are located in the
Documentation/crypto directory of the patched Linux kernel.

Changes from the first version of the patch:

1998-10-08 Alexander Kjeldaas <astor@guardian.no>

* Added Andi Kleene's loop fixes. Updated twofish, blowfish and
cast128 modules to use the new lock/unlock interface.

1998-10-07 Alexander Kjeldaas <astor@guardian.no>

* Ported loop_cast.c to the new loopback API interface.

* Blowfish and Twofish can be compiled in instead of being
modules.

* Added cast and idea to the config-system.

* Wrote Configure.help entries for the loop crypto patches.

Enjoy,

astor
