Is there a cryptographic filesystem for FreeBSD? Yes; see the security/cfs port. I would add some text referring to 5.x GEOM gbde. A quick example: FreeBSD 5.x comes with a GEOM based disk encryption kernel facility called gbde. See gbde(4), gbde(8) and a tutorial paper somewhere on the net. marco --
