Perhaps the usage message is not clear. The client controls the encryption state of the Rx connections it makes to the file server. Using "fs setcrypt on" tells the client to use encryption for file data transfers. > * Charles Clancy ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) [20020220 09:36]: > > > If you would like to encrypt everything, do an "fs setcrypt on". > > However, this will *not* encrypt client cache contents, which may or > may not be a problem for you (it certainly is a problem for us). This is interesting. Your users don't trust the client to protect the data? Or are you worried about the client's disks being exposed during service calls or sold after a hardware upgrade?
