I'm having the same issue, following your instructions: $ ecryptfs_insert_wrapped_passphrase_into_keyring ~/.ecryptfs/wrapped-passphrase LOGIN_PASSWORD $ mount.ecryptfs_private
I am able to mount it manually, but none of this happens at start-up. I have a fingerprint reader set up (pam_fprint.so), so my common-auth looks like this: # # /etc/pam.d/common-auth - authentication settings common to all services # # This file is included from other service-specific PAM config files, # and should contain a list of the authentication modules that define # the central authentication scheme for use on the system # (e.g., /etc/shadow, LDAP, Kerberos, etc.). The default is to use the # traditional Unix authentication mechanisms. # # As of pam 1.0.1-5, this file is managed by pam-auth-update by default. # To take advantage of this, it is recommended that you configure any # local modules either before or after the default block, and use # pam-auth-update to manage selection of other modules. See # pam-auth-update(8) for details. auth sufficient pam_fprint.so # here are the per-package modules (the "Primary" block) auth [success=1 default=ignore] pam_unix.so nullok_secure # here's the fallback if no module succeeds auth requisite pam_deny.so # prime the stack with a positive return value if there isn't one already; # this avoids us returning an error just because nothing sets a success code # since the modules above will each just jump around auth required pam_permit.so # and here are more per-package modules (the "Additional" block) auth optional pam_ecryptfs.so unwrap # end of pam-auth-update config Would this break it? Note that I don't type in my password to log-in, I just use the fingerprint reader. -- ecryptfs-utils does not handle changing password https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/283477 You received this bug notification because you are a member of eCryptfs, which is a direct subscriber.
