zuluCrypt,a TRUECRYPT and LUKS based encrypted volume manager
 
greetings,

i am a current maintainer of a project called "zuluCrypt"[1] and permission to open this post to speak of it to inform members of this great forum of its existence.

The project aims to be a front end to cryptsetup and tcplay to make it easy to use these great command line tools to manage encrypted volumes easily in linux .

The tool also ships with another tool called "zuluMount" that can handle zuluCrypt supported encrypted volumes as well as unencrypted volume and hence can be used as a general purpose mounting tool and a possible alternative to whatever solution you are currently using if you are not happy with it.

More information is on the project's front page.

To be able to build it from source,make sure the following packages are installed(exact names maybe different here)

cmake
pkg-config
libsecret-1-dev(optional to enable storage of volume keys in gnome-keyring)
libcryptsetup-dev
libblkid-dev
libpwquality-dev(optional to allow measuring the strength of a passphrase when creating a volume)
libtcplay-dev(optional to allow creation of TRUECRYPT volumes)
libgcrypt11-dev
libqt4-dev

links to screenshots are at the end of the page below

Screenshots of the program look nice. I will try this sometime.

Good luck!
