Hi, |
2 |
|
3 |
currently I am experimenting and using Ecryptfs to encrypt single |
4 |
directories. |
5 |
I am using a passphrase as key. |
6 |
When creating a new crypted directory, ecryptsfs writes to |
7 |
/root/.ecryptfs |
8 |
|
9 |
|
10 |
I dont know the role of the stuff written to that file. |
11 |
What happens, if this file gets accidently lost? |
12 |
What happens, if I create more than one crypted directory |
13 |
of the same name (but of different paths)? |
14 |
How can I delete completely a crypted directory -- I mean |
15 |
what do I have to do beside 'rm -rf <dir>'? |
16 |
|
17 |
Unfortunately I didnt find a howto/tutorial on the web which |
18 |
answers questions beside "How to create a crypted dir with ecryptfs". |
19 |
Where can I find answers to questions like those above without diving |
20 |
deeply into the source and the theory of Cryptography ? :) |
21 |
|
22 |
Thank you very much in advance for any help! |
23 |
Best regards |
