This might be a stupid question.. but if the server encrypts the hard drive, would every user have to enter the password whenver they need access? Or just the first user after the server boots? How about for a web server.. when it reboots will it refuse to work until someone types in the correct password?
Also what programs do you recommend for backing up over the internet? (for both the server and client?) thanks. btw: they are sending a letter to all of the clients and offering them free credit reports as you guys recommended. Dave - they secured this facility as well as any ISP is going to secure it.. unless you have armed guards at your office :) This was in a very nice neighborhood on a main street - where this type of thing is very rare. >I've been use TrueCrypt for my backup service via >my FTP server.
