Hi! I have merkaba:~> grep ecrypt /etc/fstab /home/.ms /home/ms ecryptfs noatime,noauto 0 0 And get: merkaba:~> mount /home/ms Passphrase: Attempting to mount with the following options: ecryptfs_unlink_sigs ecryptfs_fnek_sig=0408d19ec184c207 ecryptfs_key_bytes=32 ecryptfs_cipher=aes ecryptfs_sig=0408d19ec184c207 Error mounting eCryptfs: [-5] Input/output error Check your system logs; visit <http://launchpad.net/ecryptfs> Still it works. In dmesg I see: [ 2657.888355] ecryptfs_parse_options: eCryptfs: unrecognized option [noauto] [ 2657.888359] ecryptfs_parse_options: eCryptfs: unrecognized option [noatime] [ 2657.913215] alg: No test for __gcm-aes-aesni (__driver-gcm-aes-aesni) Thus I removed at least noatime, but then I still see: [ 2839.460200] ecryptfs_parse_options: eCryptfs: unrecognized option [noauto] On could argue about noatime when ecryptfs doesn´t override the setting of the underlying filesystem - i.e. doesn´t write the atime itself. But I think noauto should be silently ignored. Without noatime it would ask me the passwort upon boot, but I do not like that since I do not use that user everytime. I could use mounting via pam, but I like to have a different password for the user stored in /etc/shadow than the password from the filesystem itself.
