Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.64.0602230937130.11019@jmaa.math.ist.utl.pt> (raw)
I've been giving LUKS a try. I setup an encrypted partition on an
external HD.
Running
cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/external_hd1 external_hd1
a device file /dev/mapper/external_hd1 is created. I can mount it on
/mnt/external_hd1 and it works as expected.
Now, guess what happens if I run "cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/external_hd1 external_hd1"
again? The file /dev/mapper/external_hd1 disappears (as if
"cryptsetup luksClose external_hd1" were run).
If /dev/mapper/external_hd1 was mounted on /mnt/external_hd1, it stays
mounted. Otherwise, it seems like cryptsetup luksClose external_hd1...
Confusing?
