# cryptsetup --hash sha1 --cipher cbc-essiv:sha256 --key-size 256 luksFormat /dev/turtle/var2 # cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/turtle/var2 /dev/mapper/turtle-var2_crypt Enter LUKS passphrase: Command failed: No key available with this passphrase. The strange thing is that I enter the same phrase for luksOpen that I used for luksFormat. I must be overlooking something. Could anyone help me out? Thanks. Ross Boylan Background: /dev/turtle/var2 is an lvm 2 logical volume. The options mimic those for other encrypted volumes (which are working); they were chosen by the Debian Lenny installer. More specifically, I ran cryptsetup luksDump /dev/mapper/turtle-var and copied the information it showed. I updated /etc/crypttab before luksOpen. I had to enter the passphrase twice in luksFormat, and I tried twice with luksOpen. I'm running under emacs. I'm planning to replace my existing /var with one with more inodes. cryptsetup 2:1.0.6-7 running on Debian Lenny, amd64 architecture, Xeon chips. Bleeding edge linux-image-2.6.29-trunk-amd64, 2.6.29-1~experimental.2~snapshot.13314 because of wifi driver issues. --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
