That's a possible solution; the only issue is that it does eliminate (I think) the ability to keep a copy of the partition up-to-date on a thumb drive for reading on MSWindows. Is there a solution for a file that decrypts to a logical partition? That's what the current commercial product does. And ... If I do decide to use your idea (which sounds interesting), can I encrypt /tmp as well, and symbolically link all tmp and temp directories to subdirectories inside /tmp? And what about the swap partition? If I can do all that, then this sounds interesting. Thanks! Jeff -- Jeff Lasman, Nobaloney Internet Services P.O.
