PS: There's a paper on cryptanalyzing CFS on my homepage below. I got to successfully use classical cryptanalysis on a relatively modern system! That is a rare joy. CFS really needs a re-write, there's no real good alternatives for cross-platform filesystem encryption to my knowledge.

Take a look at ecryptfs before rewriting cfs:
Nice, but linux-only and requires special kernel support. cfs supports
lots and lots of different OSs and doesn't require kernel modes. So far
as I know, in this regard cfs is unique among cryptographic filesystems.
