What’s in my encrypted ~/Private directory?

Posted on Wednesday, October 29, 2008 in Ubuntu

I’m not sure what Dustin has done to his feed but a bunch of his old posts showed up again in Google Reader this morning. His post “What’s in my Encrypted ~/Private directory?” struck a chord since I’ve only just set mine up, so I thought I’d breathe some life into his idea of making it into a meme.

Here’s what’s in mine:


dave@treebeard:~/Private$ ls -alF
total 44










drwxr-xr-x 7 dave dave 4096 2008-10-22 20:16 .tomboy/ drwxr-xr-x 2 dave dave 4096 2008-10-17 11:59 .ssh/ drwxr-xr-x 6 dave dave 4096 2008-10-16 10:43 .purple/ drwxr-xr-x 11 dave dave 4096 2008-10-29 13:50 .opera/ drwxr-xr-x 8 dave dave 4096 2008-10-03 13:27 .mozilla/ drwxr-xr-x 3 dave dave 4096 2008-10-15 11:03 .irssi/ drwxr-xr-x 13 dave dave 4096 2008-10-27 10:09 Documents/ drwxr-xr-x 14 dave dave 4096 2008-10-29 14:59 .claws-mail/ drwxr-xr-x 81 dave dave 4096 2008-10-29 15:07 ../ drwx------ 11 dave dave 4096 2008-10-29 15:07 ./

Just the usual culprits: documents, e-mail and anything that might have passwords/identity information in it.

So what’s in yours?
