Hello,

I am not able to mount encrypted USB on Redhat Enterprise linux server.We are using cryptsetup for encryption. Below is the error which we are getting while mounting USB.We are facing this problem from last two days. Before that it was working fine.

[root@vishnugupt1 ~]# cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sdj2 usb1
Enter LUKS passphrase:
Failed to setup dm-crypt key mapping.
Check kernel for support for the aes-plain cipher spec and verify that /dev/sdj2 contains at least 258 sectors.
Failed to read from key storage


Thanks in Advance.

Thanks and Regards,
Sunil

modprobe dm-crypt

Dear linosaurusroot,

I have tried this but still facing the same issue.

Thanks for your reply.

Thanks and Regards,

Try:

modprobe aes
modprobe aes-generic

and check

ls /lib/modules/your kernel-version/crypto
and
cat /proc/crypto

and after issuing cryptsetup command see dmesg output
dmesg

It may help.

Dear veerain,

I have executed commands given by you.There is no directory like crypto in /lib/modules/your kernel-version.Output of cat /proc/crypto is given below.

[root@vishnugupt1 ~]# cat /proc/crypto
name : aes
driver : aes-generic
module : aes_generic

type : cipher
blocksize : 16
min keysize : 16

driver : aes-x86_64
module : aes_x86_64

[root@vishnugupt1 ~]#


I have executed cryptsetup command and below is error message getting in dmesg.
