[[!toc]] # Available Stores [[!map pages="*_store and !*/discussion" show=title]] At <http://www.kataplop.net/pub/info/projets> you can find some effort to make some crypto store. At <http://www.trek.eu.org/devel/hurd/crypt-trans-0.0.3.tgz>, another package can be found. # Examples [[!inline pages="hurd/libstore/examples/* and !*/discussion" show=0 feeds=no]] # Open Issues ## IRC, freenode, #hurd, 2013-07-29 [[!tag open_issue_documentation open_issue_hurd]] <teythoon> and I read hammys paper about mobile code, is it true that the store code is loaded into the client? who is the server and who is the client in this context? <braunr> teythoon: "store code" ? <teythoon> libstore <braunr> the hurd libstore ? <teythoon> yes <braunr> hum, what paper ? <teythoon> braunr: http://users.student.lth.se/cs07fh9/2009-hammar-hurd-mobility.pdf <braunr> how nice <tschwinge> braunr: http://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/news/2010-01-31.html <teythoon> it raises an important point btw, the authentication done by processes on the Hurd is one sided, only the client authenticates at the server <braunr> yes <tschwinge> It'S also mentioned in http://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/hurd/documentation.html -- but of course, any results he got from his work really should be integrated more properly into the existing body of documents. <tschwinge> As with so many other documents/discussions/etc. ;-| ## IRC, freenode, #hurd, 2013-11-12 [[!tag open_issue_hurd]] <phcoder> Is it possible to specify hurd root by sth else than device name? E.g. fs UUID? <teythoon> phcoder: I do not believe so
