** [#A] Man page: man8/password-request.8mandos
13
State that this command is not meant to be invoked directly, but
14
is run as a plugin from mandos-client(8) and only run in the
15
initrd environment, not the real system.
22
Note that it does *not* currently use cryptsource or crypttarget.
24
Describe the key files and the key ring files. Also note that
25
they should normally have been automatically created.
28
Examples of normal usage, debug usage, debugging by connecting
32
Update from mandos.xml
33
** [#B] Temporarily lower kernel log level
34
for less printouts during sucessfull boot.
36
** use strsep instead of strtok?
37
** Do not depend on GnuPG key rings on disk
38
This would mean creating new GnuPG key rings with GPGME by
39
importing the key files from scratch on every program start.
40
** Keydir move: /etc/mandos -> /etc/keys/mandos
41
Must create in preinst if not pre-depending on cryptsetup
44
** [#C] Use getpass(3)?
45
Man page says "obsolete", but [[info:libc:getpass][GNU LibC Manual: Reading Passwords]]
46
does not. See also [[http://sources.redhat.com/ml/libc-alpha/2003-05/msg00251.html][Marcus Brinkmann: Re: getpass obsolete?]] and

*** Update initrd.img after installation
80
This seems to use some kind of "trigger" system

dpkg-trigger(1), deb-triggers(5)

*** Keydir move: /etc/mandos -> /etc/keys/mandos

**** "--passfile" option
87
Using the "secfile" option instead of "secret"
88
**** [#A] "--test" option
89
For testing decryption before rebooting.

*** [#A] Create mandos user and group for server

** /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/mandos

*** Do not install in initrd.img if configured not to.
97
Use "/etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/mandos"? Definitely a debconf
99
** /etc/bash_completion.d/mandos

From XML sources directly?
