Apologies if this is well known already, but have a look at http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/579, which claims to solve this problem by embedding a lightweight ssh server in the initramfs, and allows either local or remote booting without sending the passphrase in clear text. It doesn't appear to require any source code modifications to cryptsetup. I for one would be very interested in a standard solution that would be applicable to remotely hosted dedicated servers. _______________________________________________ dm-crypt mailing list dm-crypt@xxxxxxxx http://www.saout.de/mailman/listinfo/dm-crypt
