It's kind of cool to say "everything I do is encrypted! 8-) Greetings Frederic Jaeckel -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- Version: 3.12 GCM d- s+: a-- C+++ UL+++ P+ L++ E--- W+ N o+ K w-- O+ M V- PS+++ PE+++ Y PGP+ t 5 X R tv++ b++ DI++ D+ G e h! r y+ ------END GEEK CODE BLOCK------ -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Hi there, is it possible to use such encryption like SSL/TLS for authenticating users on a mountpoint? I can't find somethin like that in the docmentation and it would be nice to have such a mechanism like that, because all passwords will be transmitted in PLAIN text. This is not very secure, because anyone can see the usernames and passwords in his sniffer program. Would be pleased if someone helps me.

Hey, You may want to make use of "pound". http://www.apsis.ch/pound/ After authentication I guess the stream will stay encrypted, but this may not be a problem for you.
