<h2>Requirements CryptoBox live-CD</h2>
<p>The <i>CryptoBox live-CD</i> runs on any x86 compatible PC with:</p>
<ul>
<li>CPU: min. 100MHz</li>
<li>RAM: 64 MB</li>
<li>CD-ROM drive</li>
<li>a network connection</li>
<li>a harddisk for your data</li>
</ul>
<p>All drives supported by the linux kernel can be used: IDE, SCSI, USB, FireWire,
SATA, RAID, ...</p>
</div>
<div class="content">
<h2>Requirements CryptoBox-server</h2>
<p>The <i>CryptoBox-server</i> package can be installed on every system with at least:</p>
<ul>
<li>Linux kernel 2.6</li>
<li>cryptsetup with LUKS support</li>
<li>kernel support for the <i>crypt</i> target of the <i>device mapper</i></li>
<li>Python 2.4</li>
</ul>
<p>In principle the server package runs on any Linux
distribution, but we just provide Debian packages. So you have to
install the necessary files on your own.</p>
</div>
<div class="content">
<h2>Encryption</h2>
<p>The encrypted disk partitions are <a href="http://luks.endorphin.org/">LUKS</a>
volumes. This makes it possible (if that would be necessary) to access your
data directly with every modern linux system or via
<a href="http://freeotfe.org/">FreeOTFE</a> (for windows).</p>
<p>Select your favourite encryption algorithm from all ciphers supported
by the linux kernel. Currently the default is
<i>aes-cbc-essiv:sha256</i> (AES in CBC mode with ESSIV based on SHA256).</p>
</div>
<div class="content">
<h2>File access</h2>
<p>The <i>CryptoBox-Server</i> will smoothly integrate into your existing
fileserver.</p>
<p>The <i>CryptoBox-CD</i> provides access to your data 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>Currently there is no user and access management integrated into the
CryptoBox-CD.</li>
