Yesterday I read about something called Realcrypt. It does what Truecrypt does, but binaries seem to only be available for distros that use the RPM package format. Does anyone know if it's a safe alternative to Truecrypt? If so are there .deb binaries available or where can the source be found? http://altoptions.wordpress.com/tag/realcrypt/ On 05/29/2014 01:55 PM, der.hans wrote: > Am 29.
