"

On a CentOS box I have a truecrypt volume that contains a
sensitive file that I no longer need.  It seems that using
the shred command on this one file within the volume would
be a good idea.  Any opinions?

Thanks,
Mike."

I don't know if that would work.. but making another TC volume
and then copying EVERYTHING from the org to the new EXCEPT
that file... then killing the ORG file... that should Kill it.
