I didn't do this, and it works anyway: |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
# cat /etc/sudoers | grep crypt |
| 13 |

Not quite, it does ask for MY password, but only for the first mount |
| 19 |
after a login. And yes, under "Application Autostart" of XFCE I have |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
/usr/bin/veracrypt --background-task |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
If I remember correctly, when configuring VeraCrypt under Windows there |
| 24 |
is a checkbox for autostarting it on login. |

My encrypted USB sticks (I have two identical ones, just in case) are |
| 31 |
NTFS formatted. And yes, naming files requires some caution. Under |
| 32 |
Linux files "A" and "a" can coexist, under Windows they can't. |
