Install the cfs port.
freebsd2:ports %make search key=cfs
Port: cfs-1.4.0b2
Path: /usr/ports/security/cfs
Info: A cryptographic file system implemented as a user-space NFS server
Maint: green@FreeBSD.org
Index: security
reboot or otherwise make sure the daemon is started/running.
mkdir /crypt
Set up a mount line:
localhost:/null /crypt nfs rw,noauto,port=3049,intr,nfsv2 0 0
cmkdir to create an encrypted directory;
cattach to attach to the directory each time you log in; eg,
cattach /ext/obtuse
now /crypt/obtuse is the plaintext view of the encrypted /ext/obtuse
directory.
Without knowing what you mean by no work being done on it
it's hard to provide any specific answers.
Is this really a -security issue or more of a -questions topic?
