[gentoo-user] "wiping" unused space and/or secure erasing of files

2005-10-29 Thread Rob
I noticed the "rm" command doesn't have any options for secure erasing of files. Maybe I saw that before on one of the BSD's. I am also interested in "wiping" unused disk space. Is there a gentoo port that does this kind of stuff? Thanks, Rob. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
