You might want to give CFS a try. I couldn't find a ton of info on the
web except this linux journal article
<http://www.linuxjournal.com/article.php?sid=6381> but it looks pretty
easy to use.

CFS has an NFS interface and is layered on top of your current
filesystem so that there's no partitioning to do. Really you just create
an encrypted directory and sorta mount it somewhere so you can use it.
Be careful about what might end up in /tmp though.
