Thanks for the hint from Steinar @ 446743 . 2009-11-01, a way was found to settle this unholy situation If one at this stage creates a newuser with 'adduser' in tty1,+ put him as standardlogin-user, the crab is in the box. >From within the newuser-identity, switch-user is easy, then he/she can deactivate the f***ing 'auto-login' Anyone new to Ubunutu suffering from this should refer to local Ubuntu- Forum for assistance, if not experienced on command line. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/353446 Title: GDM auto login won't work with ecryptfs -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 353446] Re: GDM auto login won't work with ecryptfs
I understand the fact that if my computer is encrypted, I have to enter the passphrase to log in. Makes sense. My whish would be, that if a certain usb-stick (with an encyrpted passphrase) is inserted in the pc the gdm log in automatically. If I take my laptop elsewhere and i power it on (without this certain usb-stick) i had to enter the passphrase. Sorry for my bad english I will post this idea into the ubuntu-wishlist. Maybe more people are interested in this new feature/enhancement. dani -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/353446 Title: GDM auto login won't work with ecryptfs -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 353446] Re: GDM auto login won't work with ecryptfs
A new variant of the bug is present in the CD install of 10.04 LTS: On a freshly installed system, with the first user having an encrypted home directory, the drop down list in "Login Screen Settings" for the auto-login user is indeed blanked. If a second user is added - also with an encrypted home directory - the second user IS selectable as an auto-login user with all the consequences described above. It seems that only the first user is "unlisted".

[Bug 353446] Re: GDM auto login won't work with ecryptfs
In Karmic, the option of autologin is available in the Login Screen Settings, even when home is encrypted. This just leaves the unaware and unexperienced user at risk of making his computer unusable. Many people I know like having their computer autologin. If they are not aware of the problem, the potential of combining it with home encryption is quite big. It should definitely be fixed quickly.

[Bug 353446] Re: GDM auto login won't work with ecryptfs
If an account is set to auto-login - no matter if it's encrypted or not - the behaviour should be that it will autologin. The current behaviour (gdm failure) is not desirable. It would be better to explicitly disable autologin for encrypted homedirs (as suggested by Dustin) or at least for a security warning to show, preventing login (like if home perms aren't set correctly.

Re: [Bug 353446] Re: GDM auto login won't work with ecryptfs
Sebastien- If you encrypt your home directory, you absolutely *must* enter a password on login. If you want to add some code to GDM, when doing an auto-login that detects this, that's fine too. In fact, I think that might be a good idea. :-Dustin -- GDM auto login won't work with ecryptfs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/353446 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

[Bug 353446] Re: GDM auto login won't work with ecryptfs
I'm sorry, but an encrypted home directory and gdm-autologin are two features that are simply incompatible. We handled this in the installer by allowing you to only one of 3 different options: 1) auto login (no password) 2) login with a password 3) login with a password and decrypt your home directory contents I believe this should be solved in the gdm Login Window Preferences -> Security tab. The 'enable automatic login' option should be greyed out if the user has an encrypted home directory, $ mount | grep "on $HOME type ecryptfs" seb128, I'm going to wishlist this against gdm. :-Dustin ** Also affects: gdm (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: gdm (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Wishlist ** Changed in: gdm (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed ** Changed in: ecryptfs-utils (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- GDM auto login won't work with ecryptfs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/353446 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
