sorry to keep bugging you all....
I am trying to recursively encrypt/unencrypted the files contained in
various directory trees
I have been playing with ccrypt which is easy to use but appears to get
confused with some complicated file and directory names. For example some
files don't get the extension .cpt added as they should but are still
actually encrypted and the odd file simply refuses to encrypt.
So I installed mycrypt but I am going around in circles with the syntax (yes
I read the man page - I must be having a slow brain day).
All I want to be able to do is point an encryption program at a key file and
point it at a directory tree and have the program walk through the tree
encrypting and renaming (and maybe compressing but not essential) all the
files it comes across as it goes.
Any suggestions appreciated
Mark
