Summary	0002654: minor mistake in docs.kali.org - openssl encryption command
Description	Hello, If I'm not wrong, there's a minor mistake in the following guide: http://docs.kali.org/kali-dojo/03-kali-linux-usb-persistence-encryption In the following step "Backup you LUKS keyslots and encrypt them:" the command to encrypt the luks' header backup file is openssl enc -d -aes-256-cbc -in luksheader.back.enc -out luksheader.back I think the command to encrypt the luks' header backup file should be openssl enc -e -aes-256-cbc -in luksheader.back -out luksheader.back.enc Could someone verify, please? Thanks!

We will be closing this ticket due to inactivity. Please could you see if you are able to replicate this issue with the latest version of Kali Linux - https://www.kali.org/downloads/)? If you are still facing the same problem, feel free to re-open the ticket.
