Brady,Then I attempted to mount a normal encrypted volume with TrueCrypt, move the data\ and sub-folders to this volume and reconfigure PG to point to this as the data folder. Now, the PG service will not start at all.moving data and subfolder on NTFS is a Level-20 operation. The usual cases for PostgreSQL-Service not starting ar:a) user account has wrong privilegesb) user account has lost "Logon as Service"c) password of user account was changed / invalidate by some system policy / administratord) user account which the PostgreSQL service logs on with is not able to acces the data-directories. d) is usually anaylizable via the system eventviewer.Most likely cause during your copy operation: the permission on the directories where changed. OR: the link to the Data-directory (part of the service-configuration) within services.msc is no longer valid (as in: data in different place)I can confirm that is possible to have a database on a TrueCrypt encrypted volume. It is dog slow. My impression is that data from that encypted volume is not really cached.HaraldHas anyone implemented something like this for PG in Windows?
Thanks!
