Hi all-- For a loopAES encrypted filesystem I use the following line in my /etc/fstab: /dev/hdx /crypt ext3 defaults,noauto,loop,encryption=AES128,user 0 0 However, when I mount this via 'mount /crypt', it has the following properties, according to the mount command: /dev/hdx on /crypt type ext3 (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,loop=/dev/loop0,encryption=AES128,user=rsmith) So apparently the mount command (from util-linux version "y", patched with the diff from loopAES version "i") ignores the "defaults" option, and indeed, when I give the "exec" option explicitly in fstab, it is still ignored. However, when I mount without using fstab like this: mount -o encrytion=AES128,loop=/dev/loop0 /dev/hdx /crypt the defaults are actually respected. Am I doing something silly? Is there a way to get the defaults when mounting via fstab? Regis - Linux-crypto: cryptography in and on the Linux system Archive: http://mail.nl.linux.org/linux-crypto/
