I have made some additional tests with different settings and machines. This error can only be reproduced, if the encrypted filesystem is created with the option not to encrypt file names:
(1) jo@computer:~$ ecryptfs-setup-private [...] log off -- on [After logon encrypted filesystem is correctly mounted into decrypted, so ~/Private is mounted on ~/.Private.] (2) jo@computer:~$ ecryptfs-umount-private [Private is correctly unmounted] (3) jo@computer:~$ ecryptfs-mount-private [Private is correctly mounted, everthing ok] BUT: If you create the encrypted filesystem without file name encryption, as jo@computer:~$ ecryptfs-setup-private --no-fnek and repeat steps (2) and (3), then appears the the error in (3): (3) jo@computer:~$ ecryptfs-mount-private Enter your login passphrase: Inserted auth tok with sig [fa708ae428382477] into the user session keyring keyctl_search: Required key not available Perhaps try the interactive 'ecryptfs-mount-private' jo@computer:~$ On my system I specifically do not want file name encryption because I am using unison to syncronise the encrypted files with some servers. With file name encryption turned on, I cannot understand which files are actually changed on my system and on the server.
