Basically I need an encrypted filesystem that I can easily mount and unmount at will with a passphrase, Preferably this filesystem will exist in its encrypted form as a single file. I am not so bothered about security of contents whilst the filesystem is in the mounted state.
I was thinking of doing something funky with a loopback mounted iso of an encrypted filesystem with some scripts to mount/unmount it.
Sounds like you want something like loop-aes - This provides an encrypted file system on a loopback device.. Here's a short link to get you going. http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/81
