Mellow greetings! There is this thingy that I'd like to do. :-) Basicly plugging a USB-stick (or other portable storage device) into a Windows-box, putting data on it and unloading the data again onto my FreeBSD-box. Sometime the data will have to travel in the other direction too. As long as the information on the stick isn't encrypted, that is pretty trivial - most operating systems can read and write NTFS, all can read and write FAT(32). But if I want to encrypt the information in case I lose whatever the data is stored upon, I run into trouble. Truecrypt, which is widely used unter Windows and Linux doesn't really work under any BSD. Same goes for Free-OTFE. Is there actually any way to do this? Does any software exist that runs unter both Windows and FreeBSD or is there a software for FreeBSD that can read and write volumes of another software that works unter Windows? I mean on the fly encryption, not something like OpenPGP for single files or the like. Regards, Chris -- Geeks don't need to get laid - they get off on benchmark results.
