File encryption utility?
« on: February 20, 2010, 06:08:20 PM »
Does Tiny Core already have a fairly small file encryption utility? I'd like to keep my passwords to various websites in a safe file on my computer--unless someone can tell me a better way to do it.

Open Office will encrypt files, but I don't want that big beast eating up valuable drive space.

bcrypt is included, it uses blowfish with a 448-bit key, on a per-file basis.

Loop-aes has kernel support in 2.x, the userspace is in util-linux-ng.tcz. This can be used to encrypt partitions or loop files.

Thanks, curaga. I had looked for it as an extension and didn't realize that it is apparently part of the base.
