Hi, I can consistently reproduce this problem:
1) Take a directory with lots of files and some large files (e.g., your mail directory; in my case 22000 files with a total of 1.8GB). 2) Mount a samba share with mount.cifs 3) Mount a subdirectory on the mounted share with encfs 4) run rsync to backup the directory onto the encfs encrypted directory It will hang at some point without any possibility to recover. I ran strace on encfs, it hangs at a close() event. read(4, "@\0\0\0\31\0\0\0d\216\0\0\0\0\0\0\356 \0\0\0\0\0\0\350\3\0\0d\0\0\0"..., 135168) = 64 dup(3) = 5 close(5 I was able to fix it by mounting cifs with the option: cache=none Performance sucks now but it's working. So I don't know whether anyone really cares to fix it and whose bug it actually is (encfs or cifs implementation), but I thought people might appreciate the report. If I, as an unknowing end user, can help to resolve this, let me know. Have fun and thanks for the wonderful encFS! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Learn Graph Databases - Download FREE O'Reilly Book "Graph Databases" is the definitive new guide to graph databases and their applications.
