:You pass them the RSA/DSA pair key at mount (mount -key pathToKey
:/pfs/cryptedPFS ), the key could be stored in a removable device, like
Not that we would build into HAMMER itself. That sort of crypto needs
to be its own block device of sorts.
I think it will become easier to build those sorts of layers once
the devfs project is done. Then we could add a shadow block device
topology that provides encrypted access to the disk block devices.
