Re: New release of CFS Unix encrypting file system available

What happens to hard links?

mkdir foo bar CFS_set_directory_key -directory ./foo -key foo-key CFS_set_directory_key -directory ./bar -key bar-key

This isn't how it works. You "attach" an encrypted directory to a virtual namespace into which you write (and read) the cleartext. It's similar to mounting a file system.

cp /etc/passwd ./foo/test1 ln ./foo/footest ./bar/bartest cmp ./foo/footest ./bar/bartest

Hard links don't work across different "attached" directories (just as they don't work across different file systems). -matt
