I'm using coLinux mainly to access the filesystems of a dual-boot Linux installation, and it works really well... Except I set up eCryptFS yesterday, and it requires kernel keyring support:

"Security options"/"Enable access key retention support" (CONFIG_KEYS)

Can this be added to coLinux kernel?

CONFIG_KEYS and CONFIG_ECRYPT_FS are enabled in SVN rev 1542 now, see snapshot
https://sourceforge.net/projects/colinux/files/Snapshots/devel-20101109-Snapshot/

Please tell if you need more options to enable.

Thanks, eCryptFS is working now.

(Although for some reason, "ecryptfs-mount-private" does not insert the apropriate FNEK for file name decryption, as it would do in the dualbooted system. I'll try to figure it out later.)
