hmmm... 2 minutes ago, i was able to use vnd to encrypt an entire
partition.
IIRC, you can't use vnd0 for partitions, somehow it causes problems. But
if you use vnd1 or a higher number, it should just work.
uh, pretty sure that's not the case. this hogwash about encrypted
partitions is getting old:
# df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Capacity Mounted on
...
/dev/sd0e 19.7G 19.7G -1008M 105% /enc/var
/dev/svnd0a 19.4G 2.3G 16.1G 12% /var
did have to do the vnconfig thing in /etc/rc where you normally mount
/var on boot, but the whole thing IS encrypted.
