Re: [fuse-devel] Fuse + Ecryptfs

[Amit G. <g22...@gm...>]

Hi  Sven,

Thanks for your reply.

actually i am working on fuse based cloud file system.
i am doing downloading and uploading files from my fuse based file system.
but i also want to encrypt my files before upload to cloud and decry-pt
after download.
is this possible with FUSE or i have to use other encryption mechanism.

Thanks & R egards,
Amit Garg
