Overview

+ +

'captive' is the base package. It contains debugging 'captive-cmdline' client.
+'captive-lufs' permits mounting NTFS as regular filesystem. It needs 'lufs'.
+'lufs' is a daemon to enable userland process to provide filesystem functions.

+ +

Any errors from 'captive-lufs' are written to '/var/log/messages'.

+ +

Needed drivers (at least ntoskrnl.exe+ntfs.sys) must be in '/var/lib/captive'.

+ +

'captive' package creates 'captive' user and 'captive' group on your system.
