thanks for the info, good to know that sshfs seems to work on a daily basis. I have migrated from NFS to SSHFS already. I'm using certificates for additional security and have restricted firewall rules so that only transfer between both VMs TC/port 22 is allowed. Seems like a solution that is ok, even when I'll not out the "save-the-world-formula" there (as encfs seems to be the weakest link in my setup). Regarding my specific use case I would like to synchronize the data to keep a copy at another location. Using LUKS images can cause a problem depending on the transfer mechanism, as I need to use a mechanism which will only transfer the qctual changed blocks not the whole image. As such I'd like to use an encryption which works with file based encryption - knowing that this has reduced security as metadata etc. can be used to attack the encryption. See my other mail, how my solution with SSHFS looks like. [799] -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
