[Bug 277578] Re: ecryptfs does not work properly over nfs, cifs, samba, WebDAV, or aufs
@wlxing: Sorry didn't see the notification until now. But actually when i worked on this years ago it was for a SOHO demo project with desktop clients bound via LAN to a centralized NFS Server for keeping clients dump and still having encryption. In the end for production we switched to laptops with no realm integration, gave up on LAN dependency and just did push backups of eCryptFS encrypted files. Didn't try to integrate eCryptFS over NFS any further since then :( In server scenarios eCryptFS would be still a nice way of interactively working with file based encryption on remote storage. EncFS is doomed and using GPG is non-interactive. The idea of streaming a big file through remote storage protocols and looping on top it with either LUKS or Ext4 encryption doesn't seem too fancy although it worked when i tested it briefly with LUKS and btrfs. @kirkland @tyhicks Guess you're guys quite busy with a lot of stuff at Canonical ;) But do you have an short update on this? Or do you know any alternative to eCryptFS for using file level based encryption on remote storage through the mentioned protocols? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/277578 Title: ecryptfs does not work properly over nfs, cifs, samba, WebDAV, or aufs To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ecryptfs/+bug/277578/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 277578] Re: ecryptfs does not work properly over nfs, cifs, samba, WebDAV, or aufs
I just done a server with NFS(w/o Kerberos)+NIS on basis of the upcoming Ubuntu 14.04 with server and desktop installations. eCryptfs seems to work, as i can log into an eCryptfs protected home directory on the graphical login screen (lightdm needs some config changes though). At first i thought it would be just able with an extra bind mount like: mount -t nfs4 -o proto=tcp,port=2049 SERVER:/home /home.nfs mount -o bind /home.nfs /home But it's also working with a direct mount of NFSv4 on /home, i only missed to install ecryptfs-utils on the second desktop i was testing on, as i seems to not be installed when you don't vote for encrypting the users home folder. Now i need some rough test cases, as i just did login with a fresh account and that may not be the corner cases. Does somebody have any clues on? @Johny: as i just looked at your setup it seems, you did something like a mixed thing between NFSv3 and NFSv4. That's you can export the folder is really strange as eCryptfs should be transparent to NFS, it's only that seems to have problems on top of NFS.

eCryptfs on top of NFS isn't going to happen in the short term. Nearly all of the eCryptfs fixes are now in place, except for one last sticking point. The NFS maintainer is requiring that eCryptfs fix up a struct nameidata and pass it down into NFS, but that can get ugly and is something that the VFS maintainer is against. The VFS maintainer has alluded to a patch set that he is working on to do away with the nameidata passing, but it is not currently posted anywhere. When that happens, eCryptfs has a much better chance at supporting NFS. ** Changed in: ecryptfs-utils (Ubuntu) Status: In Progress = Triaged ** Changed in: ecryptfs-utils (Ubuntu) Importance: High = Wishlist -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/277578 Title: ecryptfs does not work properly over nfs, cifs, samba, WebDAV, or aufs To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ecryptfs/+bug/277578/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
