BoxCryptor free MAC OS x + Strato HiDrive -> conenction lost

jgeorg

Hi all,

I've setup a Mac OS X Server to connect via secure WebDAV to my Strato HiDrive using BoxCryptor free for encryption. For the moment I'm doing tests and facing a blocking issue. When trying to copy files to the enctrypted folder stored in the HiDrive and mounted as /Volumes/Backup, BoxCryptor looses connection after some MBs and copying failed. The connection to HiDrive is fully stable at any time.

OS is MAC OS X ML 10.8.3 with latest updates and BoxCryptor is the current version downloaded from the web.

If somebody has a good advise how to fix this issue, this would be a very helpful.

Why not decouple encryption from setting up and sustaining your remote connection
(as BoxCryptor is also more or less intended to be used):

* Have a local BoxCrytor folder (at least in your own LAN) that will contain
your files in encrypted form.
This step will now not include your remote connection.

* Sync that local folder to your Strato HiDrive.
This step will not involve BoxCryptor
