Comment 36 for bug 307019

We tested an Ubuntu 11.04 today regarding this problem.

The conclusion is, that you have to perform tidious, manual commands in the shell in order to create new users in Ubuntu, if encryption is enabled. It seems, that new users are born with insufficient permissions to live.

In order to create a new encrypted user, named "Ann" in a group "Users", in Ubuntu, you have to add the following commands to your procedure for creating new users.

cd /home
ls -ld ann
sudo chown ann:users ann
sudo chmod 0770 ann
ls -ld ann
