It probably deserves to be noted that there is an explicit tension between preservation and encryption here. The chances of being able to recover from various catastrophic failures is substantially reduced by the move to encryption. Having said that, if I needed to do this, I'd use file-system level encryption for the entire directory. Depending on your platform this might be eCryptfs (linux), BitLocker (Microsoft) or FileVault (MacOS). cheers stuart -- Stuart Yeates Library Technology Services http://www.victoria.ac.nz/library/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The ultimate all-in-one performance toolkit: Intel(R) Parallel Studio XE: Pinpoint memory and threading errors before they happen.
