Okay, I have something of a solution for this problem.
I have already committed the getent changes. Those are fixed now.
For the password checking portion, I'm adding a new option to ecryptfs-
setup-private: --nopwcheck.
This will bypass the /sbin/unix_chkpwd checking.
I'll also update the usage statement and the manpage to inform users
that this option is useful if the user's password is not stored in
/etc/shadow (such as LDAP, perhaps).
Thanks for the bug report!
