Hi, I have here a setup where some backup directories are mounted encrypted (using geli). rc.conf: geli_devices="ad3" geli_ad3_flags="-k /root/backup1.key" ... But if the system must be rebooted it asks for the password before a network connection is available. The computer has no keyboard via default so it is really a pain to get the system up again. Is their a possibility to do something like that after the reboot: mount /mnt/backup1 and mount starts geli and geli will ask for the passphrase? Thanks, Matthias -- "Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots.
