I am trying to encrypt my home folder but I stuck:
Installed ecryptfs-utils and executed /usr/bin/ecryptfs-migrate-home -u rfnx
Is running through a lot process lines stating on the beginning with

and ends with
ERROR: Cannot proceed.
Think that's might have something to do with that I have moved some .AppImage Applications and my Telegram Apps (Telegram & Kotatogram) to home/rfnx/Apps & afterwards tried to move them to /usr/rfnx/Appsand set a symbolic link to my home folder,and tried to keep tzhe Apps folder off my home folder but that resulted in the same error I've sent and my home folder is still kept unencrypted.
yeah youre right!
But as Zorin produces about 200GB+ upload per day & I want to be sure that my personal data, in case it's being uploaded, cant be read.
I'll have some sensitive data there in the future
But maybe thats just paranoina!
Think to get a NAS will be the better solution
dont know what to explain more than "I get big upload amounts", but here a screenshot comin' from a gnome network speed extension:
(recorded after about 10 hours of usage with a 1MBit upload line.
Never checked the logfiles or wiresharked what's using the most traffic, but in the end I dont care as I'm always using unlimited traffic lines ...
(I live in east germany and have a slow 8MBit line as I ordered 16/1MBit to save money but the Gouvernment messed with the "Aufbau Ost" related to good phoneline connections.
Next month I'll get 60/10MBit cable for just €6 more/per month )
BTW: The traffic became a lil less since I use rkhunter, but its stil very high
Zorin OS does not gather nor upload your data, personal or otherwise.
270 gigabytes being uploaded is a Huge Amount.
I would be 100% all over this... I highly recommend you determine the cause of such uploading if it is separate from your own known activity. It may be your own activity and you had not realized you are uploading that much data (Live-streaming or backups to cloud or whatever). But you really want to know and if it is not your activity, then you must know what that activity is coming from.
you had not realized you are uploading that much data (Live-streaming or backups to cloud or whatever)
Thats also true:
I installed IPTVNator recently - that may be the reason for the high traffic
BTW: High uptraffic for IPTV sounds like nonsense!
No matter, I will keep an eye on that ...
dooh - Σ < That's the Sigma sign and is used to represent Summation, everything declared now!
And to have a 100% secure folder I used ecryptfs:
mkdir ~/safesave
sudo mount -t ecryptfs ~/safesave/ ~/safesave/
That's the best solution for the moment as I think!
everything declared now!
