I haven't worked with Windows in 10+ years, but now I occasionally have the need to transfer data (usually large amounts) from a customer Windows (XP or newer) machine to our local Linux machines - usually on a portable 2Tb USB-connected harddrive. This is generally done ad-hoc, so no real time or possiblity to prep the source Windows system with software etc.
Is there a way to encrypt or password protect such a harddrive/ filesystem such that it is accessible from Windows and Linux both? (with very few or no changes on the Windows source system). If the same systems would work the Macs too it would be great :-)
All pointers appreciated.
A collegue told me that he got it to work between Ubuntu and XP with Truecrypt, so with OpenSuSE it should also work.
Thanks Berny, someone already wrote to me off-line and suggested Truecrypt. It looks like a good possibility. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (17.8°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
