I would suppose all of them? Add an encrypted Partition, with data or whatever on it, to a running system can be done easily. If you can mount a filesystem locally you can also mount it from within a ssh-session. Another problem is if you put "things" essential for booting up the system into the encrypted partition. Then you'll have to invest some extra work... Cheers Michael -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
