Hi, I found a workaround to the problem of determining the cleartext filenames. *Before* you delete the zero-byte files, back 'em up:
1) tar find .Private -size 0b | xargs tar -czvf zerofiles.tgz 2) Unmount your encrypted home 3a) Temporarily move the "good" files away: mv .Private .Private-real 3b) and restore the "broken" ones: tar xzvf zerofiles.tgz 4) remount your encrypted home The files will not be usable, but at least you know their names 5a) Unmount your unusable encrypted home 5b) restore the "good" encrypted files: mv .Private .Private-broken mv .Private-real .Private 6) Remount and continue. My last problem: I *still* have 5 files for which I get the "Valid eCryptfs headers not found in file header region or xattr region" error. Since I purged all -size 0b files (verified!) I'd like to know how to track those ones down. Is there another find expression that can nail those down ? Any other debugging option I could/should enable to find these 5 files ?
