Stdin without using "-d -", as you later discovered, apparently treats the password differently; there's an extra hashing step before the key material is cropped to the size of the key. Basically, be consistent in how you specify the key, because they each have different meanings. --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
