(I hope everything marked as quoted from valient was really posted by him and not Boris -- I don't remember seeing his original message, and Boris's quoting was a little unclear in his message as I received it). What you're describing sounds like the expected behavior: what's being exported is the home directory as seen by the OS, not going through encfs (or any other fuse fs). I use nfs to export all my home directories on my server, and then use encfs to get at the encrypted subdirectory on the client machine. My nfs shares look pretty much just like Boris's, except that I'm also using autofs to automount them as needed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: High Quality Requirements in a Collaborative Environment.
