Disagreement within the cryptsetup manual, cryptsetup 1.0.5

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

in the following some errors in the manual:

######################
--key-size

...Default is 128.


" After that the read data will be hashed with the default hash or the
hash given by --hash and the result will be cropped to the keysize
given  by  -s  (default 256  bits)."
######################

If with "Default is 128." is meant the default size of "the partition
header" it is not obvious articulated. Which key size is the right
default value? And what is the default value of the cipher?
aes-cbc-essiv:sha256 or aes-cbc-plain or...?
