Install the cfs port.

freebsd2:ports %make search key=cfs
Port: cfs-1.4.0b2
Path: /usr/ports/security/cfs
Info: A cryptographic file system implemented as a user-space NFS server
Maint: greenFreeBSD.org
Index: security

reboot or otherwise make sure the daemon is started/running.

mkdir /crypt

Set up a mount line:
    localhost:/null /crypt nfs rw,noauto,port=3049,intr,nfsv2 0 0

cmkdir to create an encrypted directory;
cattach to attach to the directory each time you log in; eg,

cattach /ext/obtuse

now /crypt/obtuse is the plaintext view of the encrypted /ext/obtuse
directory.

Without knowing what you mean by no work being done on it
it's hard to provide any specific answers.

Is this really a -security issue or more of a -questions topic?
