Package: cryptsetup
Version: 2:1.4.3-4
Severity: wishlist
Dear Maintainer,
I use cryptosetup so that I can send disks for repairs without worrying about
confidential data on the
disks. I would love to use cryptsetup on servers, but I need to be able to
reboot the servers without
having to enter the passphrase.
It would be ideal to me if I could simply have a small USB stick containing a
passphrase that will
unlock the disk. Not only would that be handy for servers (where you could
leave the USB stick in the
server), it would also be great for my laptop: Insert the USB stick when
booting and remove it after
unlocking the cryptodisk.
I have now written a patch that will search all devices for the file
'cryptkey.txt' and try decrypting
with each line as a key.
The patch is released under the same license as
/usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/local-top/cryptroot
Regards,
Ole Tange
