2008-10-15 15:54:59 Jamie Strandboge None: statusexplanation Thank you for using Ubuntu and taking the time to report a bug. The only way to protect your data from a live cd or other means is to encrypt it. Ubuntu users have various options for encrypting their data, including Encrypted LVM via the alternate installer CD and Ecryptfs (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EncryptedPrivateDirectory). Integrated ecryptfs has been greatly improved in the upcoming 8.10 release, though good support is also included in earlier releases, such as Ubuntu 8.04. There are plans to investigate using Ecryptfs in the default install in upcoming releases.

2008-11-19 00:39:06 Dustin Kirkland  ecryptfs: statusexplanation I've fixed this upstream in ecryptfs-utils-66, which supports encryption of all of home directories. I'm leaving the Ubuntu task open for now, as there's a bit more work to be done at the distribution level, to get this working in the installer, etc. :-Dustin

2009-01-26 19:52:26 Dustin Kirkland  ecryptfs-utils: statusexplanation I'm marking this "Fix Released". The ecryptfs-utils pieces are pretty much feature-complete, and uploaded to Ubuntu. The remaining bits are mostly in the installer, and in the GUI-tools. These have separate bugs. Cheers, :-Dustin
