Hi there,

is it possible to use such encryption like SSL/TLS for authenticating
users on a mountpoint? I can't find somethin like that in the
docmentation and it would be nice to have such a mechanism like that,
because all passwords will be transmitted in PLAIN text. This is not
very secure, because anyone can see the usernames and passwords in his
sniffer program.
Would be pleased if someone helps me.

Greetings
Frederic Jaeckel
