Configuration File |
BestCrypt for Linux stores its parameters in configuration file
/etc/bc.conf
Configuration file allows following constructions:
# comments
module <module_name> <module_id> <key_length> <algorithm_name>
| module_name | is a kernel module name for specified encryption algorithm. Kernel accepts names shorter than 64 bytes. |
| module_id | unique ID (hex byte) identifying encryption module. |
| key_length | is algorithm key length in bits. |
| algorithm_name | is a name used to specify encryption algorithm when creating new container, reencrypting container etc. Algorithm name is case insensitive. |
|
Example: Following lines represent a comment and description of cipher named GOST with 256-bit keys provided by module bc_gost.o # my own comments module bc_gost 0xaa 256 GOST # my favorite algorithm |
