Hi!First I want to apologize for using UTF-8 characters in my bug report. It seems not everyone can handle them yet, and a bug report should be readable by all.

No, it doesn't work. I'm asked for the password of the key, and then nothing happens. Using ps I see that the process cryptsetup luksOpen is in sleeping state doing nothing. But does LUKS work with password form stdin? The old method is using keyfiles in /tmp IIRC.
For now, I'd suggest you either: wait for the new release, help test the SVN version (once I've had time to do some more work on it), or use the keyscript option in /etc/crypttab instead of the "ssl" option.
Latter doesn't work while my patched version of the decrypt function is working. But I will help testing. Simply tell me when you have a test version ready.
5. Now it works. The next step would be solving the problem how a normal user could use cryptsetup to activiate a encrypted partition or an encrypted removable device.I think Gnome already has support for mounting luks-encrypted removable storage (e.g. USB keys). The gnome-volume-manager changelog suggests its been available since the beginning of this year.
Yes, but I don't use Gnome or KDE. The loop-aes utils have a patched version of mount, so I can write everything in /etc/fstab without the need for other programs.
I have two new options for /etc/crypttab: user and noauto with the same meaning as in /etc/fstab. I have devices I don't want to activate at system start.
Shade and sweet water!
Stephan
