Scenario

In this Linux config we are going to create encrypted partition for user "linuxconfig" and use pam_mount to mount it under /home/linuxconfig directory. For this config we have used Debian Linux, however the very same principle for creating encrypted partitions can be applied also for any other Linux distributions such as SuSe, RedHat, Gentoo, Ubuntu.

Prerequisites

First and the most important one is to make sure that on partition on which you are going to encrypt, is empty. If you have some important data there move them NOW to some save place. When creating encrypted partition all data will be removed. Secondly we need to satisfied software prerequisite so you need to install packages for:

• cryptsetup ( Ubuntu, Debian package: cryptsetup )
• pam_mount ( Ubuntu, Debian package: libpam-mount )

Using The Perl interpreter

Find Perl Interpreter

which perl 

Implicit Execution

NOTE:Every script starts with shebang:"#!" which is not read as a comment. First line is also a place where you put your interpreter which in this case is perl.

#!/usr/bin/perl print "Perl Programming\n"; 

Make Perl Script Executable:

chmod +x perl_script.pl 

Introduction

Purpose of this article is to provide to reader step by step guide, how to mount partition with NTFS file system on the Linux operating system. This article consists of two parts:

• mount NTFS file system read only access
• mount NTFS file system with read write access

Mount NTFS file system with read only access

NTFS kernel support

Majority of current Linux distributions supports NTFS file system out of the box. To be more specific, support for NTFS file system is more feature of Linux kernel modules rather than Linux distributions. First verify if we have NTFS modules installed on our system.

ls /lib/modules/2.6.18-5-686/kernel/fs/ | grep ntfs 

NTFS module is presented. Let's identify NTFS partition.
