I beleive this is what you need...

Give to us a feedback.

New Package. Now, I made a test..  

# bctool new -a idea -s 1M -d Teste /mnt/card/test.bcript

Thanx... I'm probably doing something wrong... When I tried to mount a container (created on desktop) I got "Kernel modules not loaded". OK, so I did modprobe bc_twofish  (since that was the algorithm used to create the container). lsmod shows bc & bc_twofish loaded. However when trying to mount the container I still get "Kernel modules not loaded" What am I missing?
TIA,
SNi
P.S. Trying to mount using command  bctool mount -t vfat /mnt/cf/test.jbc /mnt/secrets          I also used modprobe to load all the modules, same result

There should be an init script which loads the modules at startup, and makes sure that the bestcrypt volumes are dismounted cleanly at shutdown. Have a look in /etc/rc.d/init.d for a file called bcrypt. 'bcrypt start' should load the modules you need.

OK. I used the bcrypt file from the pdaXrom unstable feed in place of the one sidmoraes packaged, keeping all other files from sidmoraes' package. Now when I do "./bcrypt start"  it runs and I get:

Initializing Bestcrypt
Using /lib/modules/2.4.20/block/bc.o
Using /lib/modules/2.4.20/block/bc_blowfish.o
...
...
and it loads all the .o's    This can be verified by lsmod. However when I try to do anything (e.g. create a new container via "./bctool new -a idea -s 1M -d test" or mount an existing container "./bctool mount -t vfat -m twofish cryp_file /mnt/sec") I get the error:

/home/QtPalmtop/lib/libkgsha.so: undefined symbol: _divsi3
Can not Load Key Generators

Looks like an issue with the libkgsha.so and/or libkgsha256.so files... Any ideas?? I can unload all the modules OK via "./bcrypt stop", resulting "unmounting encrypted filesystems" and all the modules being unloaded...
TIA for any and all help,
SNi
P.S. No .so files in the pdaXrom version..

Sidmoraes,
Thanx for your continued help.. I downloaded your update. First bcrypt loads the modules OK, then when I tried to create a new container I got a message re missing libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 file. I searched, found and put into /usr/lib (symlink to libstdc++3-libc6-2.2.2.10.0.so). Again tried to create new container, and got message:

/lib/libc.so.6: version 'GLIBC_2.3' not found (required by /usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.2.2.so.3)

I can symlink libc.so.6 to libc-2.3.6.so in /usr/lib but it seems looks to /lib where libc.so.6 is symlinked to libc-2.2.2.so and not to /usr/lib... and I can't change in /lib... You seem to have it working, any ideas?
Thanx again,
SNi

Looks like other folks have downloaded sidmoraes' package as well...  Anyone else having either any success or any issues? Sidmoraes apparently has it working on his C1000 w/ Cacko, I'm having issues with a C3000 & stock ROM...

OK, turns out I had two different versions of libfloat.so.1 and after getting rid of one this works just fine. Use sidmoraes' package (attached to his first response) and also the ipk he linked to and Bestcrypt works perfectly on the C3000.

Now I have an encrypted container on my CF that I can access via the z and Windows desktop (I purchased the Windows version). Fantastic  thanx Sid

Hello,

now I'm also trying to set up BestCrypt using SNi's instructions on http://www.sibelle.info/gadgets/zbcrypt.htm (http://www.sibelle.info/gadgets/zbcrypt.htm)

Thanks for this excellent guide! Installation went fine and I can initialize BestCrypt and create a container.

However, I'm stuck with formatting the new container.
I enter
Code: [Select]
bctool format -t ext2 /mnt/card/Documents/bestcrypt_containerand after being asked for the password and entering the password I get
Code: [Select]
execve /sbin/mkfs failed: No such file or directory
Operation not permitted

I am root.
There is no /sbin/mkfs
But there are the usual /sbin/mkfs.* (ext2, vfat ...)

When I remount / as rw and then do an ln -s /sbin/mkfs.exts /sbin/mkfs and then retry formatting I get

Code: [Select]
mkfs: bad blocks count - /dev/bcrypt0

What can I do?

Thanks a lot
daniel

This happens with the version I compiled for pdaXrom as well. The problem is that there is no mkfs program for the Zaurus, and bestcrypt doesn't know to look for mkfs.ext2 or mkfs.ext3 instead.

You need to create the container on a desktop machine and copy it to the Z for mounting by bctool.

Mike.

Right... Since I had been looking for s/w that would allow me to do the encryption on desktop and PDA I had created, formatted, etc. the container on my CF using my desktop... (I also created it on the desktop because I thought it would be quicker)

I tried Bestcrypt as compiled by sidmoraes, but the test I made showed that it only works on a Zaurus with Linux 2.4.20 (SL-Cxxxx).
As I use an SL-C860 with Linux 2.4.18 (Cacko 1.23), I wonder if someone (maybe sidmoraes?) could compile Bestcrypt for this configuration?

Edited July 11, 2007: I had to change form a C860 to a C3200 and Bestcrypt now works ok. I use several Bestcrypt containers of up to the Linux maximum of 2000MB each.

I tried Sid's package, and it works brilliantly, I even created and formated/mounted with no errors. now to see if I can write to the device, we sall see, if it works good I will make an ipk out of the thing, easier to install for the nOOb's


well copied and deleted a mass of files....looks like its good to go

Do you know where you got the other version of libfloat.so.1?  I'm getting the same error you had mentioned earlier:

/usr/lib/libkgsha.so: undefined symbol: _divsi3
Can not Load Key Generators


I'm wondering if there are two packages containing libfloat and if I have the wrong version.  I'd like to find some decent encryption software, but I haven't found one that works.  I'm running pdaxrom beta3 on a C1000 and I have libfloat 1.0 installed.

Also, it looks like BestCrypt is not freeware.  I'd be willing to spend for decent encryption, but I noticed on [a href=\"http://www.jetico.com/order.htm]Jetico's site[/url] that they offer "License Renewal."  Does that mean that this would only be good for a year or so and I'd have to essentially "re-purchase" it regularly?  I don't "subscribe" to software like this because I've seen too many companies go out of business.  I'm not going to put myself in a position where I am invested in a utility / application (time, effort and data) and then the company goes under, forces a (possibly incompatible) upgrade, or discontinues support for a specific version and the software becomes unusable.

Hopefully this message gets someone's attention...
I got the bestcrypt to work on C3200 and was very happy to have encrypted file system finally working on Z -- until I rebooted.  Z failed to restart giving following errors sometime during the boot messages and hanged:
[blockquote]VFS: can't find a minix or minix v2 filesystem on device 01:01
mounting /dev/ram1 on /dev failed: invalid argument[/blockquote]
the problem is probably similar to those discussed here:
[blockquote]https://www.oesf.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=21413 (https://www.oesf.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=21413)
https://www.oesf.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=21463 (https://www.oesf.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=21463)[/blockquote]

I've linked /etc/rc.d/rc[0|1|6].d/K95bcrypt to /etc/rc.d/init.d/bcrypt.
Tried manually unmounting and ran '/etc/rc.d/init.d/bcrypt stop' before reboot.
I have tetsu's kernel v18j for Sharp ROM, use menaie's zgcc for libstdc++
Do I need to edit rc.sysinit !!??

It works, just don't reboot.
Could anyone please give me any pointers.
Thanks.
