popen() ?


well, i tried something like this without luck,
maybe im doing a simple mistake, could you take a look at the code?

void init_password_callback(GtkWidget *dialog, gint response, char
*dev_mapper){

   char *argv[5] = {"/sbin/cryptsetup luksOpen", dev_mapper, NULL, NULL,
NULL};
   GError *error = NULL;
   char* fifoname = NULL;
   FILE* fifo = NULL;
   GPid mount_pid;
   char* passphrase = NULL;


    if (response == GTK_RESPONSE_OK)
       passphrase = gksuui_dialog_get_password(GTK_WIDGET(dialog));
    if (!passphrase)
       g_print("kein Password");

    gtk_widget_destroy(GTK_WIDGET(dialog));
    // g_print("PASS: %s", passphrase);
    gchar pw[512];
    gchar init_pw[512];
    sprintf(init_pw, "/sbin/cryptsetup luksOpen %s", dev_mapper);
    // g_print("ARGV_3: %s",init_pw);

    FILE *fp = popen(init_pw, "w");

       if (fp)
       {
        sprintf(pw, "%\n", passphrase);
       fputs(pw, fp);
//        fputs(pw, stdin);
       }

    return;
}


Since there is no -P option i cant do it via argv.
which is a good thing(tm)


i think that to, bash_history could make the whole thing useless...

thx

L.
