cryptsetup-luks is a utility that is used for managing encrypted
|
||
|
|
partitions and volumes. It was originally based on cryptsetup, and
|
||
|
|
adds support for LUKS (Linux Unified Key Setup). LUKS is a standard
|
||
|
|
on-disk format that stores all necessary setup information in the
|
||
|
|
partition header.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To compile this package, the device-mapper package is required. This
|
||
|
|
package is available from the extra/lvm2 directory of your Slackware
|
||
|
|
Linux 11.0 distribution medium. Actually, cryptsetup-luks will compile
|
||
|
|
without having this package installed, but it won't be able to do
|
||
|
|
anything useful, because it cannot map a device for a crypto device.
