I created a new user and set up the private directory and it worked as the way it should, so I went into my home directory and deleted .Private and .ecryptfs and set up a private directory and it now works correctly.
I now have run into another problem. Before leaving my home directory I umounted the private directory, then logged in as my other user, the private directory was not mounted, so I mounted it using one of the scripts I created to mount and umount the private directory. I then switched users to my main user and the private directory was mounted and accessible. So when a user mounts the private directory in their home directory, all private directories get mounted system wide. Mount script: #!/bin/sh mount.ecryptfs_private Umount script: #!/bin/sh umount.ecryptfs_private -- Can open Private directory after a reboot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/259631 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
