comment Cannot SSHFS mount user home directory
@chriss I suppose I could convert ecryptfs to a truecrypt volume and then krb5p NFS should work, but that would be a very long and bumpy road (resize partitions, transfer data, key management, etc).

@chriss actually the main reason is this: serverfault.com/questions/200759/…

@chriss for security reasons. It would be very difficult to satisfy the same requirements with NFS.

comment Synchronize SSHFS mount with local filesystem
@LuisAlvarado, sorry I have probably caused some confusion. The link ive posted Is not answering the question, but it brings one to a setup in which you mount a remote filesystem at login. My point was that when somebody sets that up on a mobile workstation such as a laptop it desirable to somehow cache that filesystem locally. And this is what I am trying to achieve and this is what the question is about. So it will be useful to anybody who set up the system as described on that link, but has a laptop that is not always online.

@LuisAlvarado unfortunately I haven't solved that yet.

comment Synchronize SSHFS mount with local filesystem
@LuisAlvarado my setup is described here: help.ubuntu.com/community/SingleSignOn#Shared_Files. It is not very uncommon that people have laptops and would like to sync those mounts for when they are on the move. Somebody has also market it as a favourite. All of this kinda proves you wrong.

That looks promising, but how do I determine the path of the modem? After all it is inbuilt and I cannot unplug it.

I haven't installed win8 yet, but isn't it possible to use just grub to select your OS?

comment How to access windows folder (that installed on virtualbox) via Ubuntu?
As far as i know, you can't designate guest directories as shared folder. You can only do that with host directories.

Is the SIM PIN protected? If not your google account can still compromised using wifi.

comment How to disable PIN on SIM card
@Takkat I am not informing about a bug. I know the bug exists and I know that it is known and I know that it was apparently fixed. However it's fixed for me. So I need some help about getting to to work for me. And also as I've said, id rather disable the PIN on the SIM rather than simply saving it in NetworkManager. A bug report is a description of something that does not behave as it is supposed to. Not knowing how to disable the PIN or not knowing how to work around an existing and confirmed bug is clearly something else!

@Huckle I suppose that would be NetworkManager.

comment Ubuntu 11.10 with gnome 3 fails to shut down
@cirno I doubt gnome-shell or gnome altogether plays any part in this, as at this stage they are no longer running.

comment “AND Operator” in PAM
You answer works as far as my question is concerned. But for some reason ssh bypasses PAM when a kerberos ticket is presented and therefore this brick does not solve the problem that I was trying to solve. But that not the fault of your answer, so I have accepted it.

comment “AND Operator” in PAM
Ok I think it is because pam is bypassed by sshd when a kerberos ticket is delegated.

comment “AND Operator” in PAM
Ok it is not working for some reason. Seems like pam_unix is for some reason letting kerberos users through. Any idea why this could be? I have commented out the krb5 line altogether, still able to login.
