https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=218512 --- Comment #13 from Alexander Motin <mav@FreeBSD.org> --- (In reply to Frank from comment #10) "One or more of the iterations end up getting computed differently that what it is currently set to and subsequently causing one or more passphrase changes to fail." -- Sorry, I don't see logic in this statement. You several times mentioned this scenario as source of problems, but I don't see any. Multiple processes running same time indeed likely cause different number of iterations to be set on different disks. And so what? The only thing number of iterations affect is a strength of password protection against brute force attack. And it should in no way cause any errors reported, since number of iterations is generated only once and then used forever, unless forced later with -i key, which IMO you should not do without very good reason. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
