Truecrypt over network share
I'm building a home file server using samba so I can create shares for my windows machines. I would like to migrate all of my data over to the Linux box and was wondering if I could somehow continue to use Truecrypt on my windows laptop to mount a Truecrypt volume (file container) over a network share.
The host OS of my server is Ubuntu 10.04 LTS and I downloaded TrueCrypt 7.1a. After a few chown and chmod changes I was able to create the volume but I'm getting errors stating that the volume is not a recognized file system. The file system that hosts the volume is ext4 so this error makes sense.
Just wondering if there is a workaround or alternate solution that will allow me to create a private encrypted container on my Linux file server, accessible over a samba share from Windows clients.
