First: I'm sorry for this strange topic behaviour, but I don't know how to write real answers (I tried in the test list, but didn't work either). >I gahther this is a new installation and you would only lose >a few hours of configuration work, correct? No. It was a fully working installtion. I wouldn't car that much about this problem, but I wanted to backup my stuff last weeekend (old backup was messed up). So basicly I'm standing here without any backup from the last few years... >For example if >you have, say, 12 characters and 9 of them are the same on most >keymaps, then you could try a direct brute force. I had the same idea last night. although my password is about 20 characters long a brute force attack shouldn't take too long, because there are 4 special Chars [eg ()_-] and 8 numbers. Letters shouldn't be the problem, numbers too... _______________________________________________ dm-crypt mailing list dm-crypt@xxxxxxxx http://www.saout.de/mailman/listinfo/dm-crypt
