It sorta bothers me that app-crypt/cfs is almost 2 years old and is still testing (~x86). This is one of those apps I'd prefer stable. So, before I get to settled on using this, a few questions. Do you encrypt your home directory? What apps and/or combination of apps do you use, and why? Which ciphers do you prefer? Why? Is it well supported? What apps and/or files don't play well with encrytion? I'm sure I'll have more questions after I've read some more. Thanks, festus --=20 In all the millions of years dinosaurs roamed this planet, did any of them feel the need to invent, say, nuclear weapons?
