Mount encrypted disk on other Linux maschine

with new firmwares and lvm probably futile

Hello everyone, which command did you use:
cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sdc3 encdis
or
cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sdc3 encdisk --key-file=/tmp/mykey.key
?
In my case I have no key, just the password.
Thank you!

QNAP encrypt the password and use the encrypted value as the password for cryptsetup.

First thing is to convert the password to a key file you can use with vanilla crypto setup. Run

Code: Select all

echo -n $(openssl passwd -1 -salt 'YCCaQNAP') > qnap.key

and enter the password to create the key file.

In case anyone's wondering how to do it without the password or key file, but with the QNAP still functioning, there is a way.

First, on the QNAP, check which drive has six partitions, that's probably the one the QNAP is using. In my case, that's sdb6. Run

Code: Select all

strings /dev/sdb6 | grep ENCK

The output is

Code: Select all

ENCK=$1$YCCaQNAP$encryptedpassword

Run

Code: Select all

echo -n '$1$YCCaQNAP$encryptedpassword' > qnap.key

to create the key file.
