I use a GBDE-encrypted /var partition which i attach and mount during boot in rc.local.

why don't you use /etc/rc.d/gbde? (btw, which version of FBSD?).

Heh, because I didn't know about it! Thanks, this looks like the cleanest solution.

How do I use this script? If I interpret the source correctly, I should just set
   gbde_devices-auto="AUTO"
in /etc/rc.conf and enter my encrypted partition in the fstab?

Dummy question: Where should I look to find documentation about scripts like this? I haven't found it mentioned in either the handbook or the manpages.

I don't know. It might not be documented so well yet, but there's an rc mailing list, try search the archive:
