Maybe someone can help guide me (or many of us) though some steps with
TrueCrypt that was not found in the 138 page manual. The manual is
very helpful, but does not seem to apply to this situation.
Most of the text posts here in the groups usually have the all the
clues that one needs.....
I use TrueCrypt on several boxes, but have never used keyfiles.
I have no problem creating & mounting a new volume (container) using
passwords only.
I have been trying to figure out this keyfile scheme since the 14th to
no avail.
First I need solid confirmation that I can do this using only a few
files (i.e. part 1, part 2 part 3, etc) instead of having to download
the entire container or volume or post or whatever you want to call
it, because I have been trying to do it with only first few 3 or 4
files.
I then combine these first few files with JAS to create one file.
Also need confirmation that now we are only using a keyfile and not
any passwords anymore. (hopefully just ONE keyfile).
Somewhere along the line someone replied that it was a combination of
2, then 3 keyfiles put together or something?.(is someone re-inventing
the wheel again?...)
Is the keyfile to be used as the filename?? (i.e.AB07AB08AB09).
I 've looked through posts back through the 14th looking for some
other "keyfile". I would just guess that it's the filename at this
point.
The closest description of useful help that I got was the post on the
17th called "TC tutorial" (half German & half English) which I was
able to follow but it keeps on coming up as "Incorrect keyfile or
password or not a Truecrypt volume".
I've tried using the filename as the keyfile different ways with
similar results.
Are we to create a new volume using the filename of the post? or just
put the post into a container that we already created & mounted
before?
Is anyone having success opening these with only first few segments of
the post? (first few files as sample view after combining with JAS).
Someone already replied that it was not a problem with Truecrypt. It
always worked with WinRAR, even with encryption.
So far I have not been able to open anything posted using TrueCrypt
with keyfiles.
My troubleshooting now has so many different possibilities of steps
(or incorrect steps) that I don't know just what steps would be the
correct ones to resolve these issues & make it work..
I am obviously not getting the procedure correct somewhere.
The fat women posts should be the ones encrypted beyond recognition,
then put them in real huge containers & format as FAT..............
Thanks for any help.
