Hi,

I am new to this list.  I haven't ever contributed code before, and 
have no idea on how to do this.

I have made some changes to my copy of the 9.1.1 code that 
encrypts/decrypts the database files on the fly using AES256 cypher.

It passes all the tests.  :-)

The changes are limited to :  src/backend/storage/file/fd.c  src/backend/storage/file/buffile.c
src/backend/libpq/be-fsstubs.c

At the moment the password has been hardcoded into the source, I don't 
know how to get it passed in atm.
