Hi there,
I have a server and an online harddrive which can be mounted on the server using wdfs. Creating files on this harddrive works without any problems. What i want to is to create a Truecrypt volume 450GB in size on the online harddrive. But what i experience is that Truecrypt creates this file on the local file system (i do not know where) and wdfs copies this file after Truecrypt has finished onto the online harddrive. The problem now is that i do not have enough free space on my local disc :. There are only round about 60GB left. So what happens is that truecrypt starts creating the file and gets an error after the local disc is full. Right after this wdfs starts writing data to the online harddrive (which i check via a Windows-system). What can i do? Is this a problem of Truecrypt or is this a normal processing of wdfs? One variant may be using cifs as second and last mount alternative but i get this:
mount -t cifs <online disc> <local path> -o user=<user>
Password:
mount error: cifs filesystem not supported by the system
mount error(19): No such device
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g.man mount.cifs)
…but zypper install cifs-mount says that it is installed.
It would be great to get some new ideas from you. If you have some please be so kind and tell me about it!
Using openSUSE 11.1
Cheers
