I remember reading somewhere that it should, in principle, be possible to export such a file system with the encryption happening on the client. The doc I read said it would be supported RSN, but that was a few years ago. Has anyone gotten that working here? That would be very nice for all manner of things if I could mount something that is garbage on the server but meaningful on the client. In particular, it is one solution to remote backup to untrusted servers. -- Jeff Jeff Abrahamson <http://www.purple.com/jeff/> +1 215/837-2287 GPG fingerprint: 1A1A BA95 D082 A558 A276 63C6 16BF 8C4C 0D1D AE4B
