...en a short howto on creating and mounting an encrypted filesystem using dm-crypt. The doc currently lives on our internal wiki (Trac) at work, but I'd love to rewrite and post for a general readership. I suppose the proposed URL would be something like http://wiki.centos.org/TipsAndTricks/EncryptedFilesystem -- Paul Heinlein <> heinlein at madboa.com <> www.madboa.com

Hi All, This is my first post to centos-docs. I've read several months of archives, but, this may be too trivial.

Hello all, I posted the whole disk encryption instructions in the forum that has been briefly discussed on the list. I joined the list per Ned's post on the thread. http://www.centos.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?viewmode=flat&topic_id=15923&forum=42 I have a couple of questions about the process of creating a wiki. 1. How does the peer-review process work? 2. Is there a place
