Re: Description of the Journaling topology
:What if the journal is for an encrypted disk? It would probably be
:desirable for the journal data to be encrypted in that case, especially
:if the stream was a socket to an offsite machine. It might be necessary
:to store key data in the journal; depending on just how the encryption
:is done.

:(Sorry if this sounds like I'm playing devil's advocate. I really meant
:to ask this question earlier, but I didn't really (and don't now) have
:the knowledge to ask it in a more detailed/helpful manner.)
Well, that's a pretty good attempt but I would counter with: "But wouldn't
it be easier just to have an application take the journaling stream and
encrypt it?". Remember, the journal is just a descriptor, it can point
to anything, including a user program.
