Branch: CURRENT, Version: 1.5.0, Package name: cfs-1.5.0, Maintainer: gdt
CFS pushes encryption services into the UN*X file system. It
supports secure storage at the system level through a standard UN*X
file system interface to encrypted files. Users associate a
cryptographic key with the directories they wish to protect. Files
in these directories (as well as their pathname components) are
transparently encrypted and decrypted with the specified key without
further user intervention; cleartext is never stored on a disk or
sent to a remote file server. CFS employs a novel combination of
DES stream and codebook cipher modes to provide high security with
good performance on a modern workstation. CFS can use any available
file system for its underlying storage without modification,
including remote file servers such as NFS. System management
functions, such as file backup, work in a normal manner and without
knowledge of the key.
This is a continuation fork which does not currently intend to make
substantial changes, but is buildable on modern systems.

Log message: security/cfs: Improve statvfs handling and add patch comments It is necessary to use statvfs instead of statfs on NetBSD; simplify how that is done. Explain most patches much better and add notes to file most upstream. |

Log message: security/cfs: Update to 1.5.0b Shift to a continution fork of cfs, which has many of our patches applied, and which is buildable with modern rpcgen. Tested on NetBSD 9 amd64 with an encrypted directory that was made with older cfs. Upstream changes are mainly modernization of the code and removal of accomodations for the 80s and 90s. |
