Disk encryption using ecryptfs fails: "You do not own that encrypted directory"

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

A friend of mine told me ubuntu offers a ecryptfs based solution,
where only a directory is encrypted (therefor no need for seperate
partitions or ugly image files),and which is mounted automatically
using the user's password at logon time.

I discovered with Fedora-15 I can do the same using ecryptfs and the
appropriate pam module.

I used the tutorial at:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/EcryptfsAuthConfig, but
everytime I try to create a private encrypted folder, I get the error
attached at the end of the email.

Any ideas whats going wrong?

Thank you in advance, Clemens
