freebsd encrypted hard disk?

2009-01-14 Thread Johann Hasselbach
I read the "encrypting disk partitions" section of the Handbook. What
is the preferred method nowdays, geli or gbde?

Is there another method that would be better?

mergemaster goof when src upgrading 7.0 -> 7.1

2009-01-06 Thread Johann Hasselbach
I was doing a src upgrade from 7.0 to 7.1

After installkernel, i rebooted, and accidently ran "mergemaster"
instead of "mergemaster -p" before installworld. I ctrl-c'd once I
realized what I had done, but the damage was done.

It seems to have overwritten my password and group files.

I successfully copied groups, passwd, master.passwd, pwd.db, and
spwd.db from a recent backup and everything looks okay now.

Did I damage anything else?
