encfs over glusterfs

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I am considering running encfs over glusterfs so that I can include insecure 
boxes in the storage backend for our backups running rdiff-backup.  Actually, 
I would prefer the crypto to be done in glusterfs, but I understand that's a 
little way off.

Does anyone use this arrangement -- and are there any gotchas?  


In case you don't know, here's how the encrypted part of encfs looks:

~/.crypt$ ls -la

total 216
drwx------+  8 andrewm andrewm  4096 2009-01-13 20:47 .
drwxr-x---+ 84 andrewm andrewm 12288 2009-01-30 16:08 ..

And the plaintext part of a encfs filesystem:

~/crypt$ ls -la

total 208
drwx------+  8 andrewm andrewm  4096 2009-01-13 20:47 .
drwxr-x---+ 84 andrewm andrewm 12288 2009-01-30 16:08 ..
