That's because it works ;) I've been using this setup with encrypted files for +2 years now. You don't have to care about loopX anymore, fstab will do anything needed. I do something like that: +mhentges@mhcln01:/etc/ssh >mount /home/mhentges/.safe Available keysizes (bits): 128 192 256 Keysize: 256 Passwort: +mhentges@mhcln01:/etc/ssh > And then it's mounted. All you need is the crypto-enabled mount, and losetup tools. +mhentges@mhcln01:/etc/ssh >mount [...] /home/mhentges/.safe on /home/mhentges/Data/Safe type reiserfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,loop=/dev/loop1,encryption=twofish) +mhentges@mhcln01:/etc/ssh > Dunno why it doesn't work for you.... -- Matthias Hentges [www.hentges.net] -> PGP + HTML are welcome ICQ: 97 26 97 4 -> No files, no URLs My OS: Debian Woody: Geek by Nature, Linux by Choice -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
