[Bug 283477] Re: ecryptfs-utils does not handle changing password

 

I have tested password changing thoroughly over the course of this past
week, and it seems to work in every case I can throw at it.

I'm marking this 'Fix Released'.  Please reopen if you have a specific
case you can reproduce on an up-to-date Intrepid.

Thanks!

Binary package hint: ecryptfs-utils

I recently changed my login password via:
passwd defcon
changed password
rebooted
Logged in and I get no private directory
I then tried ecryptfs-rewrap-passphrase ~/.ecryptfs/wrapped-passphrase oldpass newpass and rebooted and still no go, what can I do to recover my data??
Thanks

I also get this error:
defcon@ion:~/.ecryptfs$ mount.ecryptfs_private 
keyctl_search: Required key not available
