I am still wrapping my head around ecryptfs so am not quite sure if it
is possible, but did see a bug that may be potentially related
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ecryptfs/+bug/293433), so I thought I would
give it a shot asking here.

I have a test Ubuntu 9.04 machine that is set up so that authentication
is over Kerberos while authorization is over the local /etc/passwd
files.  Once I install krb5-config krb5-user and libpam-krb5 the
/etc/pam.d/* files are all set up appropriately for this and works with
a non-encrypted home directory.  A completely local user (no krb5
authentication) can have an encrypted home directory on this machine.

When I create a user with "adduser --disabled-password --encrypt-home
user" I get the proper dialogue with the passphrase to write down.
Logging on only gives me the unmounted home with the .Private directory
and the soft-linked README.txt and Access-Your-Private-Data.desktop
files.  Mounting manually will not work.  Is there something I am
missing when creating users?

Thank you,
- -- Robert
