Hi Tom, try to test copying specifically a file you know throws an error. You might want to check how many characters there is on filename, I found some references that point 140 characters as the maximum possible for encryptfs: http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/32795/what-is-the-maximum-allowed-filename-and-folder-size-with-ecryptfs
To copy using CLI: $ cp /path/FILENAME_FROM /path/FILENAME_TO 2015-09-27 11:24 GMT-03:00 Nio Wiklund <nio.wikl...@gmail.com>: > Hi Tom, > > Not quite like that. > > This drive that you show with lsblk has 'only' encrypted home with > cryptswap. > > The other system, that you showed earlier, the netbook(?) has a mapped > root partition. lsblk would show more details, and I think that system > has .encrypted disk'. > > /dev/mapper/lubuntu--vg-root ext4 152432756 28978632 115687904 21% / > > I don't know all the details of the 'encrypted home' system, if there > are limits to the file names (size, use of special characters etc). > > Best regards > Nio > > Den 2015-09-26 kl. 17:10, skrev Tom Cloyd: > > > > Nio, > > > > Thanks.
