i'm not sure why this could be needed. upstream cryptsetup knows only keyfiles and passphrases, keyscripts are a feature of the cryptdisks wrapper in the debian package. so from upstream point of view there might be no need to support a timeout in conjunction with keyfiles. if you use keyscripts, why don't you simply add timeout support to the script itself? greetings jonas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
