Building a Fully Encrypted NAS On OpenBSD

Posted by kdawson on from the peace-of-mind dept.

mistermark writes "Two years ago this community discussed my encrypted file server. That machine has kept running and running up until a failing drive and a power outage this last week. So, it's time to revise everything and add RAID to it as well. Now you can have an on-the-fly encrypting/decrypting NAS with the data security of RAID, all in one. Here is the how-to."

    Meh...

    1. download FreeNAS
    2. install to USB/CF drive (it needs ~32Mb)
    3. configure * reboot on the USB/CF drive (or if your mobo cant boot to those, maybe a CD or spare HD)
    4. ?
    5. Profit!
