If you don't want to mess around with patching kernels (and a few userland apps, from memory), a good alternative is cfs, the Cryptographic File System. It's packaged for debian, in non-us, and is easy to set up and use. About the only problem with it compared to an encrypted loopback volume, is that you can see how many encrypted files and directories there is, although the filenames are scramblmed, without encrypting it. cheers d. -- Damon Muller | Did a large procession wave their torches Criminologist/Linux Geek | As my head fell in the basket, http://killfilter.com | And was everybody dancing on the casket...
