Usage

All commands are to be run as root (sudo)

initialSetup.sh
createEncryptedContainer.sh -c=test.container -s=10 -p=test -m=/home/user/test

You will be asked to enter passphrase thrice - twice while setting up the encryption and once more while mounting it to zero the whole file.

mountEncryptedContainer.sh -c=test.container -p=test -m=/home/user/test
umountEncryptedContainer.sh -p=test
