Hi all

FreebSD 6.2

I have  usb disk crypto with GELI and now I am making a script in order 
the operators users can change this disks

When I try to do

   cat key 1 key2 | geli attach -k - /dev/da0

I get the error:

  Can´t lock memory: Operation not permited


if I run under root user it work without problems.

is there a solution for that? or is a problem of GELI?


thanks in advance
