Subject: Re: Write to kernel buffer?

My goal is to remove all traces of the password from all memory, after a 
certain period of time. I want it to be so removed from memory that even 
if someone does a cold boot attack they will not be able to recover 
traces of the password from the frozen physical memory, after the wipe 
process. The password itself is used for the decryption of a private 
asymmetric RSA key, which I also would like to make sure has no traces 
left in memory, but I think and hope that OpenSSL takes care of this 
itself....
