Re: [suse-security] Encrypted Filesystem

High Ciro,

I'll probably get a Latitude D610, and because i'll work with sensible information and because of that i was considering the encrypted filesystem option on SuSE 9.2 in case the laptop is stolen or something like that, but i'm not sure about how it works, maybe it's not practical to encrypt +/- 20GB of data and pretend to work normally with that every day, any hints?

if you use SuSE it'll allow you to use an encrypted partition, at bootup you can provide the password. So while you're working everything is transparent, it'll protect your data when your shutdown notebook gets stolen. kr=
