I've eventually found the issue. This is due to the newline character after the passphrase, which cryptroot-unlock doesn't remove! I could confirm with "echo -n <passphrase> | ssh ...", which works. I've reported the bug: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1141580 (I thought I had tried with "printf %s <passphrase>" earlier, but I may have made a mistake in my test.) -- Vincent Lefèvre <[email protected]> - Web: <https://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <https://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / Pascaline project (LIP, ENS-Lyon)
