If I create a loopback encrypted filesystem mounted using a file hosted on a regular non-encrypted disk (http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Loopback-E...tem-HOWTO.html) and place the large 'container' file on a fat32 partition shared between linux and windows can the container file be mounted as a drive in Windows ? this way the contained encrypted files could be shared between linux and windows ... TIA! Edo
