Subject:   Another problem with not re-attachable gbde slice
Message-ID:  <1293070566@web.de>

Hello list,

I wrote a few weeks ago about a problem with reattaching a gbde encrypted slice under FreeBSD 5.2.1. The slice worked for about 3 month without any problem (could be attached, detached and so on). After writing lots of data to this attached slice (about 9-10 Gig) the slice couldn't be attached any more. There appeared no /dev/ad0s3a.bde-device file after an "gbde attach /dev/ad0s3a -l /etc/gbde/ad0s3a".

I upgraded to RELENG_5 last sunday hoping that this maybe solve my problem, but it didn't. So I tried the follwing command to change my key (just to check if the access to my key is borken) and got an error:

# gbde setkey /dev/ad0s3a -l /etc/gbde/ad0s3a
Enter passphrase: <I entered the 100% correct passphrase here>
gbde: Lock not found

Did I something wrong or is the gbde-slice finally unusable (I read a few maillings in this list that there were some bugs regarding the reattaching of gbde-slices)?


Best regards
Stefan
