I'm using 18.04, everything up to date. ecryptfs is used for home encryption. Everything seems to work fine, but error messages (as already noted above) appears. Not to repeat everything already said, additional note could be that the messages are not tagged where they really comes from. It is a good practice (at least) everything in the system log to be explicitly clear where it comes from (as in most cases).

After the unsucessful attempt dmesg contains: [ 1265.695388] Could not find key with description: [<correct key ID>] [ 1265.695393] process_request_key_err: No key [ 1265.695394] Could not find valid key in user session keyring for sig specified in mount option: [<correct key ID>] [ 1265.695395] One or more global auth toks could not properly register; rc = [-2] [ 1265.695396] Error parsing options; rc = [-2] Note: The correct key ID has been replaced in the "<correct key ID>". I also accidentally found an workaround - just running ecrytpfs- manager and then the ecryptfs-mount-private (it does not ask for password for the second time and mounts the ecryptfs correctly): host:~$ ecryptfs-manager eCryptfs key management menu ------------------------------- 1. Add passphrase key to keyring 2. Add public key to keyring 3. Generate new public/private keypair 4.
