Special program or command is IMHO overkill, isn't enough just to add option to cryptsetup luksOpen (--dry-run, --no-activate, whatever you prefer)? So it will work just like # cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sdc anything --dry-run --verbose Enter passphrase for /dev/sdc: No key available with this passphrase. Enter passphrase for /dev/sdc: Key slot 0 unlocked. Command successful. Trivial to add to code... (while I am doing another RC today, it can be done today even ;-) Milan _______________________________________________ dm-crypt mailing list dm-crypt@xxxxxxxx http://www.saout.de/mailman/listinfo/dm-crypt
