Description of problem: On a fresh installed F15 with all normal updates and installed ecryptfs-utils, the ecryptfs-migrate-home-skript doesn't setup a home-directory properly. As root I started: ecryptfs-migrate-home -u test without problems. Then i logged-in with user test as the script said to do: fedora-vm home]$ su test bash-4.2$ cd test bash-4.2$ ls Access-Your-Private-Data.desktop README.txt So auto-mount didn't work but this is not the real problem I think because: bash-4.2$ ecryptfs-mount-private ERROR: Encrypted private directory is not setup properly Any idea how to produce usable log-files or something like that? dmesg and messages don't tell anything about this problem. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): ecryptfs-utils 86-1.fc15 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. install a new Fedora F15 and update 2. create a user and add him the to ecryptfs-group 3. as root run "ecryptfs-migrate-home -u *user*" 4. log-in as *user* Actual results: home-directory is not setup properly Expected results: home-directory is setup properly and automount of the encrypted container works. Additional info:
this is known, because login automount does not work in Fedora (yet). Support for ecryptfs has been added to pam (authconfig) just recently and other parts are not in place yet. Work in progress
I was able to reproduce this. Situation here is not that bad as I thought :) There is only really small piece missing to make it work from ecryptfs-utils POV, I'll add it right now. Unfortunately SELinux does not like this and requires some changes. I'm going to open bz for this.
Everything is ready, just waiting for blocking selinux bug...
*** Bug 703145 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
The problem still exists in Fedora 17. It looks like it's still the selinux problem. I've tested instructions in bug #712048 comment #17 without success.
I know about it, it's the reason why this bug is not marked as fixed. We are still waiting for selinux guys to fix their part.
This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
