I read in the forums (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7251016#post7251016) that I could just remove the files auto-mount and auto-umount in ~/.ecryptfs/ but this did not work, I could not log in to the GUI any more (I was thrown back to the login screen instead of my desktop environment). So put the two files back from the terminal, and it works again. The tutorial on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedPrivateDirectory does explicitly not cover this issue. I could not find any other information on the subject.
Am I missing something, or should I file a new bug report? -- pam_ecryptfs should respect ~/.ecryptfs/auto-[u]mount files https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/256154 You received this bug notification because you are a member of eCryptfs, which is subscribed to ecryptfs-utils in ubuntu. Status in “ecryptfs-utils” source package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: Binary package hint: ecryptfs-utils >From user feedback on the https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EncryptedPrivateDirectory >wiki page... * "I hope there will also be an option for the ~/Private directory to ''not'' be mounted at login" Additionally, it would be nice to allow a user to "not unmount" ~/Private automatically on logout. The hooks are already in place in ecryptfs-setup-private to create the ~/.ecryptfs/auto-mount and ~/.ecryptfs/auto-umount files. We simply need to teach pam_ecryptfs to respect that configuration. :-Dustin _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ecryptfs Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ecryptfs More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
