Package: dropbear Version: 2012.55-1.4 Severity: normal Hi
I use dropbear to allow remote unlocking of an encrypted root filesystem. My /etc/default/dropbear contains NO_START=1 so I expect it to shut down so that OpenSSH can start instead after initrd. That also works as expected if I boot the system and enter the encryption key at the console. But if I enter the encryption key using ssh via dropbear (i.e. by sshing into the box and running 'echo -ne key >/lib/cryptsetup/passfifo'), dropbear is not stopped. It remains running and prevents OpenSSH from starting. It turns out that this was because the last command in /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/init-bottom/dropbear, kill `cat /var/run/dropbear.pid` kills one dropbear process, but leaves another one (with a higher pid). So my crude solution was to add the following to the same file: killall dropbear Regards, Oskar Liljeblad ([email protected]) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
