Well, if all I wanted to store was documents it wouldn't be a biggie. But
then I thought... hey... all the passwords I have stored in the browser, I
don't want those floating around either, so I'd like to have my .mozilla
directory also encrypted. It was just easier to encrypt the whole home
directory.
It looks like I'm going to need a few hours to study how the fuse-based
encryption under RedHat works. I have a couple of encrypted partitions on
my disk but it's not clear how they work. I can decrypt them if I enter
the root password first...
Does anyone know of a good step-by-step document about how this works?
Thanks,
-Josh
