[qubes-users] Re: Mounting directories across VMs (losetup/block device solution for directories)?

I don't think you can achieve this by block device sharing unless you spread your directory structure across block devices exactly in a way you are going to share it with VMs - and even in that case you'll not be able to share with VM and sync with Dropbox at the same time (you didn't specify i

Re: [qubes-users] MAC Address Anonymization and NetworkManager Compatibility

Thanks to you both. I was mistaken in thinking I needed to set up MAC anonymizing in all NetVMs, but it seems like just the sys-net one is needed. And for some reason I kept reading 1.16 as 1.1.6. Which was dumb of me but led to my confusion. Thanks again for your help! Sent with ProtonMail S

[qubes-users] Mounting directories across VMs (losetup/block device solution for directories)?

Hi, I'm experimenting with creating a sys-dropbox vm that syncs with my dropbox account. I would love to be able to then mount defined subdirectories of the synced path to other vms (losetop/qvm-block- style, which only works for files). Is this possible? Where to find pointers? Sincerely, Joh --

If you download a new TemplateVM inside an existing Qubes system, using "sudo qubes-dom0-update qubes-template-debian-xx" does that download have a signature file that needs to be verified with the Qubes Master Signing key? And if yes, how do I do that? If the Master Signing Key isn't in Dom0, b
