timeout issue

[David B <davidmberten@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I'm having an issue with the timeout not working during boot or at the prompt.

Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS
Cryptsetup 1.6.1-1

I've added an entry in /etc/fstab and in /etc/crypttab so I can type a password during boot to mount the partitions. This works well. Problem is, if I don't type a password the system ignores the timeout and will wait indefinitely (system won't boot). I've noticed that the timeout is no longer an option in the /etc/crypttab, So I've tried editing the cryptsetup when creating the encrypted FS with the commands below.

cryptsetup --verify-passphrase --timeout 120 luksFormat /dev/sdd1
cryptsetup -y -t 120 luksFormat /dev/sdd1

The timeout doesn't work with either. They create the FS fine, but the timeout is ignored. I'm wondering if I'm doing something incorrect or if it's a bug.

Thanks,
