This project seems to have been abandoned by developer. Does anyone wants/intends to pick it up? I can help with testing on windows 7 sp1 x64.

PenGatting commented 6 years ago

I'd love to but I'm just a IT Student and would need lots of help...

AyJ3y commented 6 years ago

I would like to but it's the same for me as for @PenGatting. I want to switch to GNU/Linux on all my private machines but for work etc. i still need to use Windows.

I already use VeraCrypt but it's not Free Software as parts of it are under the TrueCrypt License.

Arteneko commented 5 years ago

Also, it seems like VeraCrypt doesn't support LUKS volumes, so it can't be used as a full alternative for LUKS on windows

any news?

I ran to ProxyCrypt instead. The GUI that exists for it is pretty decent, has an interesting Delphi popup, but nonetheless, you can go pretty deep using your own config for encrypted file volumes. Also noteworthy is that it uses way fewer resources than any other OTF file volume encryptor/decryptor for Windows I've tried. Would love to have its code on github though. https://sourceforge.net/projects/proxycryptgui/files/Setup_ProxyCryptGUI_2019.03.09.exe/download

For me it is important that you can open cryptsetup/luks from Linux. So it would be cool if you could revive Librecrypt. But my knowledge is unfortunately not sufficient. But maybe there is someone else :)

@misterhsp you mean opening luks on windows right?

Ja genau.

Librecrypt doesn't work anymore because it's too old. :(

sorry for german :)

That's right.

AyJ3y commented 5 years ago

I'm german too btw. Sadly my C/C++ skills are nowhere near where i could write driver code. Maybe it's enough for some modules.

jult commented 5 years ago

Sorry, I have neither the skills nor the time to code this tool for linux. That said, if someone wants to write a linux version of ProxyCrypt, devs would be happy to help about the structure of a volume if the source is not clear enough. Moreover, the algorithms (encryption and hash) are already ready to use, because there is no system call to Windows (except a few lines in scrypt), and the compiler is GCC.
