Running 12.04. I am trying to separate my wrapped-passphrase for my encrypted home folder to require a USB drive be present to login.
I followed the instructions here and added the drive to my fstab, put the wrapped-passphrase file on the drive, and then created a symbolic link back to ~/.ecryptfs
. The drive mounts fine but the symbolic link doesn't seem to be connecting the two as when I login it flashes a purple screen for a fraction of a second than takes me back to the login screen. What am I doing wrong?
ls -l /home/youruser/.ecryptfs
tail /var/log/syslog
immediately after such a failed login attempt and post the output. This will contain any ecryptfs errors.
