Thanks for the feedback, I just added back support for reading the password from the tty: https://git.codemadness.org/susmb/commit/eb8f06e5e0f3dfc37d223025c6a43c99b963c2ef.html Note that the password is kept in memory during run-time. I'm not sure currently how to make this more secure or improve privdropping (for example currently it only uses unveil and not pledge), because of the Samba and FUSE layer. If you have ideas, please let me know. -- Kind regards, Hiltjo
