I'm trying to access my former home folder. When I run ecryptfs-setup-private
, I am asked for my login passphrase which returns ERROR: Your login passphrase is incorrect
. I have tried both, my login-pw for that account, and the home-folder pw Ubuntu gave me after installing it. What can I do?

Looks like ecryptfs-setup-private
is not too good in checking password of LDAP users. Passing --nopwcheck
to the script will skip the password check.

passwd
but switching back to the old password doesn't solve the problem. I think that there is a keyring that stores some old passphrase, the problem is to find it!
