better yet, if you generally have physical access to the machine, keep a keyfile on a usb keychain. I mount /home this way with on my (slackware) laptop, with loop AES. http://sourceforge.net/projects/loop-aes/ that way if the machine gets stolen they don't have the keyfile. -- Dave Clendenan [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP fingerprint: 910E 8400 7A16 822C 9B62 209F 6CAB DEDF BF4B DF75 Subtlety is the art of saying what you think, and getting out of the way before it is understood _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
