hum, nobody's got an answer?
is there maybe a way via the shell pipelining to read the passphrase
from a file and write it to stdin?
should this work?:
bioctl -c C -l /dev/wd0a softraid0< pass.keyfile
If will by default try to read it from /dev/tty, so you need to trick it
not to.
man readpassphrase
hum, ok, that sounds logical...
do you have any suggestions how to do it?
right now, i don't have an idea how to prevent a root-priviledged program
from reading from tty...
and the flags mentioned in the man-page are all set at compile-time, aren't
they?
ok, now it works, i simply changed "RPP_REQUIRE_TTY" flag to "RPP_STDIN"
at the readpassphrase()-call in derive_key_pkcs().
now it works with bioctl -c C -l $DEV < keyfile!
but i assume the RPP_REQUIRE_TTY flag wasn't there for fun, but the devs
had something in mind when they chose tty over stdin?
