Thanks for reply...
Well, i checked that before, but also heard that 'when a system with a
mounted, encrypted virtual filesystem is shutdown uncleanly, the
encrypted virtual filesystem's structures get damaged and, since
OpenBSD's fsck command will not currently acknowledge vnd filesystems,
these damaged structures can not be repaired'
That was why i asked whether it is stable or whether there are alternate
ways.
Thanks.

Hello,
take a look at: mount_vnd(8).
Kind regards

Hello!
I've just registered to the list and i hope this is the right list to
ask a question about OpenBSD.
I would like to ask whether OpenBSD has stable implementation of storing
data in encrypted format, similar to FreeBSD geli and especially similar
to NetBSD cgd... I have searched through Google and some maling lists
and have found OpenBSD tutorials about creating an image and then,
writing data into that image using svnd approach but same tutorials also
say there is a problem with this if OpenBSD starts fsck while booting.
Is there currently alternative or better way? Or what would you suggest
to protect data?
Thank you in advance.
