Hi!

I would like to use CFS to keep all mails (/var/mail directory on a multisuer 
system ) encrypted as long as cfsd is not running and the crypt dir is not 
cattached.

I.e: for me CFS should work like that: offer write access for root (sendmail) 
to store mails in the /crypt directory. For all users it should allow read 
access to /crypt/<usersmailbox>  

However when I create the usual /crypt and encrypted directory (lets call it 
/usr/cryptedmail) and then cattach /usr/cryptedmail to /crypt as root - then 
only root will be able to read and write to /crypt/cryptedmail. 
(permission 700)

Sooo, is there a way to get around that permission problem?

thanks for any help / pointers to manpages, etc.

aaron.
