Yes. Having run into what appeared to be a dead end on the encrypted filesystem angle, I was trying alternate approaches. The advantage of (en|de)crypting a filesystem like that is I can walk up to any Linux box and use it. The disadvantage is that I have to perform those two operations, plus writing /dev/random over the unencrypted version then deleting it. A bit of a hassle. > > Additionally, I would probably prefer to use an encrypted filesystem > that is not Windows compatible. I can't imagine there are ANY encrypted filesystems that work with both Windows and Linux. I didn't find any, anyway. The thumbdrive came with some folder crypting stuff. I should try running that in wine and see what happens. That would be interesting.
