3 Debian-stable/testing and AES-loop(crypto-api) file-system encryption(kernel 2.6.x):
4 - read:
5 http://www.mirrors.wiretapped.net/security/cryptography/filesystems/loop-aes/loop-AES.README
6 http://www.sdc.org/~leila/usb-dongle/readme.html
7 http://www.kerneli.org/howto/node3.php
8 http://www.linuxsecurity.com/docs/HOWTO/Encryption-HOWTO/
9 http://debid.vlsm.org/share/HOWTO/Encrypted-Root-Filesystem-HOWTO
10 - updated/new packages needed for 2.6:
11 coreutils
12 modconf
13 modutils
14 module-init-tools
15 #: apt-get install modutils modconf module-init-tools coreutils -t testing
16 - updated/new packages needed for aes-cryptoloop:
17 loop-aes-utils
18 util-linux (testing)
19 - new packages needed for crypto-swap script:
20 sharutils (uuencode)
21 - create random passphrase/seed
22 #: head -c ${LENGTH} /dev/urandom | uuencode -m - | head -n 2 | tail -n 1
23 - create encrypted fs:
24 (passphrase need min 20 characters!!)
25 echo ${PASSPHRASE} | losetup -p 0 -e aes-256 ${LOOPDEV} ${DEVICE}
26 - with special seed:
27 echo ${PASSPHRASE} | losetup -p 0 -S ${SEED} -e aes-256 ${LOOPDEV} ${DEVICE}
28 - for crypto-swap, try this script:
29 #------------------------ crypto-swap begin ------------------------------------
30 #!/bin/sh
31 # Run this script somewhere in your startup scripts _after_ random
32 # number generator has been initialized and /usr has been mounted.
33 # (md5sum, uuencode, tail and head programs usually reside in /usr/bin/)
34
35 # encrypted swap partition
36 SWAPDEVICE=/dev/hda3
37
38 # loop device name
39 LOOPDEV=/dev/loop6
40
41 MD=`dd if=${SWAPDEVICE} bs=4k count=10 2>/dev/null | md5sum`
42 for X in 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 ; do
43 dd if=/dev/zero of=${SWAPDEVICE} bs=4k count=10 conv=notrunc 2>/dev/null
44 sync
45 done
46 UR=`dd if=/dev/urandom bs=18 count=1 2>/dev/null \
47 | uuencode -m - | head -n 2 | tail -n 1`
48 echo ${MD}${UR} | losetup -p 0 -e aes-256-cbc ${LOOPDEV} ${SWAPDEVICE}
49 MD=
50 UR=
51 dd if=/dev/zero of=${LOOPDEV} bs=4k count=10 conv=notrunc 2>/dev/null
52 sync
53 mkswap ${LOOPDEV}
54 sync
55 swapon ${LOOPDEV}
56 #------------------------ crypto-swap end --------------------------------------
57
58 - mounting encrypted file-systems at boot-time
59 - for interactive key-passphrase, add following at /etc/fstab:
60 /dev/hda6 mount-point fs-type defaults,loop=/dev/loop6,encryption=AES256 0 0
61
62 with this method you have to enter your passphrase at boot-time (when the encrypted fs will be mounted)
63
64 - with use of init script (WARNING: password/seed have to be written in PLAINTEXT!!):
65 - create follwing script at '/etc/init.d/prepare-cryptofs.sh':
66 #------------------------ prepare-cryptofs.sh begin ------------------------------------
67 #!/bin/sh
68 # encrypted partition
69 DEVICE=/dev/hda3
70 # loop device name
71 LOOPDEV=/dev/loop3
72
73 PASSPHRASE="YOUR_PASSPHRASE" # min 20 characters
74 SEED="YOUR_SEED"
75
76 case "$1" in
77 start)
78 echo "Setting up loop devices used for crypto-fs..."
79 echo ${PASSPHRASE} | losetup -p 0 -S ${SEED} -e aes-256 ${LOOPDEV} ${DEVICE}
80 ;;
81 stop)
82 echo "Deleting loop device used for cryptofs..."
83 losetup -d ${LOOPDEV}
84 ;;
85 *)
86 echo "usage: $0 {start|stop}"
87 exit 1
88 esac
89 exit 0
90 #------------------------ prepare-cryptofs.sh end --------------------------------------

94 FreeBSD(stable) - port update bugs (06.2004)
95 BUG: php4 won't comile with e.g. gettext,imap,mcrypt
96 FIX: Add a '-lc_r' to the libraries php is linked against.
97 (from http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-ports/2003-September/004231.html)
98 - for php4, do:
99 export LDDFLAGS='-lc_r'
100 change entries at Makefiles of following ports:
101 - gettext at /Makefile:
102 change
103 LDFLAGS="-L${LOCALBASE}/lib"
104 to
105 LDFLAGS="-lc_r -L${LOCALBASE}/lib"
106 - libxml2 at /Makefile:
107 change
108 LDFLAGS="-L${LOCALBASE}/lib"
109 to
110 LDFLAGS="-lc_r -L${LOCALBASE}/lib"
111 - cclient at work/libc-client/Makefile:
112 change
113 EXTRALDFLAGS=
114 to
115 EXTRALDFLAGS=-lc_r
