<p>The harddisk doesn't need to be build inside the CryptoBox. You
can run the live-CD and use external devices only like USB-drives. All

<p>Because of the high number of different supported storage media
we call an encrypted disk a <i>volume</i>. This includes for
example: USB-sticks, firewire-disks, flash-drives, digital cameras,

<h2>File access</h2>
<p>Once you openend an encrypted volume through the webfronted of
the <i>CryptoBox</i> you can access the volumes data in your local
network via:<p>
<ul>
<li>Samba shares (also known as: <i>windows network share</i>)</li>
<!-- <li>WebDAV (aka: <i>web folder</i>)</li>
<li>nfs (*nix file sharing)</li> -->
</ul>
<p>The <i>CryptoBox-server</i> package will smoothly integrate into your existing
fileserver. It provides mount points which can be shared with your
favourite applications (e.g.: WebDAV or NFS).</p>

by the linux kernel. Currently the default is
