Another question ... is your ssh passphrase the same as your system login passphrase?
If not, perhaps you might try re-wrapping your ~/.ecryptfs/wrapped- passphrase with your ssh passphrase (instead of your system passphrase)? See: $ ecryptfs-rewrap-passphrase ~/.ecryptfs/wrapped-passphrase :-Dustin -- Auto mount of encrypted home directory RANDOMLY stops to work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/364015 You received this bug notification because you are a member of eCryptfs, which is subscribed to ecryptfs-utils in ubuntu. Status in eCryptfs - Enterprise Cryptographic Filesystem: Incomplete Status in “ecryptfs-utils” source package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I had a problem with ssh public key auth and encrypted home directory in Jaunty. I fixed the issue by workaround provided by Dustin Kirkland: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openssh/+bug/362427 But after reboot auto mount of encrypted home directory has stopped to work. There is only one error string in auth.log: Mount of private directory return code [256] At the same time I am able to mount home directory manually through ecryptfs-mount-private command. But /sbin/mount.ecryptfs_private shows me the following: keyctl_search: Required key not available Perhaps try the interactive 'ecryptfs-mount-private' ... looks like pam_ecryptfs is not able to read ~/.ecryptfs/wrapped-passphrase _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ecryptfs Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ecryptfs More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
