fs_getcrypt - Displays the state of encryption for AFS file transfers

Cautions

       AFS uses an encryption scheme called fcrypt, based on but slightly weaker than DES. Because fcrypt and
       DES are obsolete, the user must decide how much to trust the encryption. Consider using a Virtual Private
       Network at the IP level if better encryption is needed.

       Encrypting file traffic requires a token. Unauthenticated connections or connections authorized via IP-
       based ACLs will not be encrypted even when encryption is turned on.

Description

       The fsgetcrypt command shows the status of network traffic encryption for file traffic in the AFS
       client. This encryption applies to file traffic going to and coming from the AFS server for users with
       valid tokens. The complement of this command is fssetcrypt which sets the status of encryption on the
       client.

Examples

       There is only one way to invoke fsgetcrypt:

          % fs getcrypt

Name

Output

       If encryption is enabled, the output is:

          Security level is currently crypt (data security).

       If encryption if disabled, the output is:

          Security level is currently clear.

Privilege Required

       No special privileges are required for this command.
