Description Curtis George 2006-11-14 20:25:09 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; InfoPath.1)

Description of problem:
After creating an encrypted filesystem and adding the appropriate lines to /etc/crypttab and /etc/fstab the computer waits indefinately for user to enter password when password is set to none.  It would be nice if the user could specify a timeout option (in /etc/crypttab maybe?).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
initscripts-8.45.5-1

How reproducible:
Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create encrypted filesystem
2.Add entries to /etc/crypttab and /etc/fstab
3.Reboot

Actual Results:


Expected Results:
