Inaccessible gocryptfs.diriv files in reverse mode while "deterministic names" option as enabled

Open yfdyh000 opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

In cppcryptfs 1.4.4.0.

I noticed that if I keep the "deterministic names" option as enabled, then create a reverse volume, the encrypted view provides the result, including gocryptfs.diriv, as if the option was ignored / unsupported. Importantly, although it shows the gocryptfs.diriv files, but accessing it will get error like "The system cannot find the path specified.", so mounting it seems impossible, I seem to get a blank directory tree.

But if I add the "DirIV" to .gocryptfs.reverse.conf, everything seems to go back to normal, like the "deterministic names" option is not enabled, and the gocryptfs.diriv files becomes accessible.
