Daniel, Padlock support is not backported into Centos, nor upstream. Since 2.6.11 kernel it has been accepted into the source tree (only AES), so we can expect it in RHEL/Centos5?!? For SHA1 and SHA256 every kernel must be patched. Interesting reading http://www.logix.cz/michal/doc/article.xp/padlock-en David
