I would like to ask you about the best choice to have one or two luks encrypted partitions to boot automatically between reboots without me to enter a pass-phrase.
I've made this already, but the way i'm doing it seems to be not very secure since the keyfile is referenced in /etc/crypttab and the keyfile and /etc/crypttab both reside on an unencrypted partition. If someone clones my HDD and connect it to some other system will easily be able to mount the unencrypted partitions and find the keyfile reference on /etc/crypttab to get the keyfile and unencrypt the protected partitions right?
So basically my problem is that i want to sell a linux server with some software i've developed to a datacenter (as an appliance), but i don't want them to get to my software easily and i can't have a password prompt between reboots also.
Can you point me out what you think would be the best solution for me?
Thanks.
BR,
Nuno.
