Been looking into truecrypt but can't seem to get it to play nice with
postgres silent installer. When I try to set the BASEDIR="M:\", which is
where I mounted my encrypted volume it gives the following error in the log

The Cacls command can be run only on disk drives that use the NTFS file
system.

Hmm, and are sure that the encrypted partition is seen by the system as a NTFS partition?

It sounded like you've done this before so I was hoping you could give me
some pointers. I know its not the rest of my install command since I've used
that many times before.

I've done that, but not on Windows, so I'm not really sure how that'll work. Maybe someone with more Windows experience could help here?

BTW: you could try and install Postgres as usual, and just keep your WAL logs directory and all data from the tables on the encrypted partition. Just read the documentation on CREATE TABLESPACE and about moving the pg_xlog directory.

Thank you for your time

You're welcome ;)

Cheers,
Jan
