# Directions for changing a system from password-based gpg keyfile
|
||||
# to smartcard-based gpg keyfile
|
||||
|
||||
# Be sure that you meet the following requirements:
|
||||
# 1. GnuPG >= 2.1 installed with
|
||||
# * Smartcard support enabled (scdaemon must be built)
|
||||
# * Direct CCID access built into scdaemon
|
||||
# 2. A password-based gpg keyfile ${KEYFILE} (e.g. "keyfile.gpg"):
|
||||
# That is, a file containing the slot key for LUKS, which
|
||||
# has been encrypted symmetrically with GnuPG using
|
||||
# a password.
|
||||
# 3. Your public OpenPGP identity ${RECIPIENT} (e.g. "3A696356")
|
||||
# 4. An OpenPGP smartcard holding the decryption key associated
|
||||
# with your public identity
|
||||
# 5. A CCID smartcard reader
|
||||
|
||||
# Notes: Requirement 4. and 5. can of course be one device, e.g.
|
||||
# a USB token with an integrated OpenPGP smartcard
|
||||
|
||||
# Make a backup of your keyfile (assuming it lies on the boot partition)
|
||||
$ cp /boot/${KEYFILE} /safe/place/keyfile.bak.gpg
|
||||
|
||||
# Change your keyfile from purely password-based to both
|
||||
# password-based and key-based (you can then decrypt the keyfile
|
||||
# with either method). As an example aes256 is chosen, the cipher
|
||||
# is not important to this guide, but do note that your kernel
|
||||
# must support it at boot time (be it built into the kernel image
|
||||
# or loaded as a module from the initramfs).
|
||||
$ cat /safe/place/keyfile.bak.gpg | gpg -d | gpg --encrypt --recipient ${RECIPIENT} --cipher-algo aes256 --armor -c > /safe/place/keyfile_sc.gpg
|
||||
|
||||
# Verify that you can decrypt your new keyfile both with the password
|
||||
# and your smartcard.
|
||||
# (with smartcard inserted, you should be prompted for your PIN, unless
|
||||
# you already did so and have not yet timed out)
|
||||
$ gpg -d /safe/place/keyfile_sc.gpg
|
||||
# (with smartcard disconnected, you should be prompted for your password)
|
||||
$ gpg -d /safe/place/keyfile_sc.gpg
|
||||
|
||||
# After verification, replace your old keyfile with your new one
|
||||
$ su -c 'cp /safe/place/keyfile_sc.gpg /boot/${KEYFILE}'
|
||||
|
||||
# Export your public key to where crypt-gpg can find it
|
||||
$ gpg --armor --export-options export-minimal --export ${RECIPIENT} > /safe/place/crypt-public-key.gpg
|
||||
$ su -c 'cp /safe/place/crypt-public-key.gpg /etc/dracut.conf.d/crypt-public-key.gpg'
|
||||
|
||||
# Rebuild your initramfs as usual
|
||||
# When booting with any of the requirements not met, crypt-gpg will default to password-based keyfile unlocking.
|
||||
# If all requirements are met and smartcard support is not disabled by setting the kernel option "rd.luks.smartcard=0"
|
||||
# crypt-gpg will try find and use a connected OpenPGP smartcard by prompting you for the PIN and then
|
||||
# unlocking the gpg keyfile with the smartcard.
