Are you planning on doing the decryption on the back-end, or on the client? It certainly seems to me that doing it on the client would make more sense; if the data is decrypted on the back-end, then you will still need the overhead of an SSL connection. In any case, I'm glad that you're looking into this; encryption-on-disk is one of those "missing features" that we might never have gotten around to as a project ... -- --Josh Josh Berkus Aglio Database Solutions San Francisco ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
