Using symbolic links for networked volume access
Authored by: Anonymous on Jul 01, '04 04:45:38PM

I do this sort of think a lot. I have an encrypted sparse drive image that I have all my mail and my SSH and GPG keys in. ~/Library/Mail, ~/.gnupg, ~/.ssh & ~/Documents/Receipts are all softlinks back to various directories within /Volumes/LockedFilingCabinet.

As I come up with things that belong in a "locked filing cabinet", I make a place for it on the drive image and a softlink back to a reasonable place in my $HOME.
