 Hi all,
 I'm looking for a way to recreate the functionality of PGP Disk (under
 Win32). Basically, create an encrypted file, which contains a filesystem
 which can then be mounted in any mount point.
 
Why don't you use gbde. It is in your distro at /sbin/gbde
Make a file with dd and format is with gbde and newfs:

dd if=/dev/random of=file bs=1k count=1000
gbde init /dev/md0
mdconfig -a -t vnode -f file
gbde init /dev/md0
gbde attach /dev/md0
newfs /dev/md0.bde
mount /dev/md0.bde /mnt

#and you are ready to use the filesystem at /mnt
#watch out for the sequence of umounting:

umount /dev/md0.bde
gbde detach /dev/md0

#for mounting you do:

gbde attach /dev/md0
mount /dev/md0.bde /mnt

Re: flashplayer plugin on firefox

 hi all
 i searched the web to installed flashplugin on my bsd. i saw such data
 in a page :
 
 # Flash with Firefox
 [/usr/local/lib/linux-flashplugin6/libflashplayer.so]
 libpthread.so.0 pluginwrapper/flash6.so
 libdl.so.2 pluginwrapper/flash6.so
 libz.so.1 libz.so.2
 libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 liblstdc++.so.4
 libm.so.6 libm.so
 libc.so.6 pluginwrapper/flash6.so
 
 everything was fine because i installed linux-flashplugin6 (and also
 7) and also did pluginwrapper.
 but in that page it was said that the above should be put in
 libmap.conf under /etc/.
 then i search my bsd and saw no libmap.conf :(
 is this something weird ? do i have to have libmap.conf ? or it comes
 with something else ?
 please help me ...

If you dont have a /etc/libmap.conf file, you have to make it yourself,
and fill it with the information above.
It tells the dynamic linker wich executable, the name between [ ],
which dynamic library file it has to substitute for the library file it asks.
So in your case, if the executable:
 
/usr/local/lib/linux-flashplugin6/libflashplayer.so

asks for the dynamic library: 

libpthread.so.0

the dynamic linker loads instead the library:

pluginwrapper/flash6.so

It is very handy if you have to use an old version of an executable
with a latest version of a library.
