Truecrypt and sshfs

[Jfranchi]

Hi all,
I've followed the videos and set up an encrypted truecrypt container
via ssh, installed sshfs and successfully mounted the remote folder
locally. However I cannot open the container file. I attempt to mount
it through truecrypt, I enter the containers password, I get a second
password prompt for admin or user and no matter what I put in I get a
'Permission Denied' error.
Any help appreciated please.

sorry bout that...what's going on is I had to modify the truecrypt binary to run as admin...so when you finish, it's owned by root.  I went and changed ownership on it back to you so you should be all set.  Sorta  a little quirk I'm willing to live with now since it allows folks to create their volumes on the server and not have to upload the entire volume...then the data on top of that.

Anyway, to make a long story short...I think you'll be good to go now.  Let me know if you run into any other issues.  And if you ever need to create a new truecrypt volume...just shoot me an email and I'll change the ownership to you as quickly as possible.

thanks,

john
