Yes, this is not relevant to what I’m asking.

Yes. The man pages are out of date and unfortunately not helpful (https://wiki.netbsd.org/security/cgdroot/). See the top of the page.

Sure, was just using the linux remote unlock as an example of what we’re trying to get configured (after encrypting the root partition with passphrase unlock). Any help from the group would be much appreciated.

Hi friends, hoping someone might be able to help or point in the right direction. We have a NetBSD 10 machine that requires Root Filesystem Encryption (unlock using passphrase) during boot. The man pages are out of date and unfortunately not helpful (https://wiki.netbsd.org/security/cgdroot/).

We are using UEFI/GPT. We have a boot partition but also another user defined partition (/backups) that is not encrypted.

Once configured, would also like to add remote ssh unlock using something like Dropbear. This is the equivalent on the Linux platform(s): https://www.cyberciti.biz/security/how-to-unlock-luks-using-dropbear-ssh-keys-remotely-in-linux
