Hello, I've written a little shell-script that greatly facilitates creation of containers hosting a filesystem encrypted with loop-aes or cryptoapi/kerneli. This script can be downloaded from: https://www.bouissou.net/wws/d_read/open-crypto/linux-crypto/mkcryptfs.gz For using it, you of course need to have loop-aes or cryptoapi/kerneli already installed on your system. Installation: - Copy mkcryptfs.gz in a directory of your choice, i.e. /usr/local/bin - Décompress: root# gunzip mkcryptfs.gz - Set correct owner and rights: root# chown root: mkcryptfs root# chmod 755 mkcryptfs - Before executing the script, you need to edit it for checking a couple of parameters depending upon your system config, i.e. choose whether to use loop-aes or cryptoapi/kerneli. Then, just run: mkcryptfs help I'd be very interested in your comments and suggestions.
