Hey Evert, Cou can use any cipher that is supported by your kernel. execute 'cat /proc/crypto' for a list. In your example aes-cbc-essiv:sha256, the cipher algorithm is aes, the blockcipher mode is cbc, and the ivhash is sha256. essiv is a modul to generate the initialization vector of the cipher algorighm. I'm not sure about that one though. greetings, jonas --------------------------------------------------------------------- dm-crypt mailing list - http://www.saout.de/misc/dm-crypt/ To unsubscribe, e-mail: dm-crypt-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxx For additional commands, e-mail: dm-crypt-help@xxxxxxxx
