Hi guys, I've been using CFS over NFS with ext2/3 without any problems, i.e., the container file is on an nfs-mounted file system. Recently I had to switch on one server from NFS to SMB. After a few minutes the crypt file system got corrupted and access to the mounted file system just hang. I tried starting from scratch with doing losetup and mkfs on the crypto file system, but it always hangs after writting about 265 inodes. I tried using ext2 with various block sizes including using the same block size for smbmount and for the filesystem. No success. There are usually no errors on the server or the client ... it just hangs. I'm using Debian Linux w/ kernel 2.4.19 (patch-int-2.4.18.3), cryptoapi 0.1.0-pre4, CFS 1.4.1, and smbfs 2.999+3.0.alpha20. I would appreciate any comments you may have? ciao... -- Lars Eilebrecht - RFC 527: "Beware the ARPANET, my son; lars@xxxxxxxxxxxxx - The bits that byte, the heads that scratch;" - Linux-crypto: cryptography in and on the Linux system Archive: http://mail.nl.linux.org/linux-crypto/
