.ecryptfs files recovered with PhotoRec. How do I use them?
Posted: 13 Sep 2012, 09:02
Hi all,
Usung kubuntu 12.04 on ext4.
I deleted my entire ecryptfs folder containing my encrypted home folder.
The backup I thought I had is unusable.
Disaster.
Running PhotoRec I have recovered the files structure.
But all directories and files are renamed as PhotoRec does.
How would I return these files to the original state, please?
I have found this thread - http://blog.dustinkirkland.com/2011/04/ ... ivate.html - to recover ecryptfs files but how would I apply this to the recovered, renamed PhotoRec files?
