Not sure why ecryptfs-recover-private requires root, I've found a way to do the same thing without root. Also I think it would be helpful to have a user friendly API for creating/mounting/unmounting ecrypted folders that doesn't require root using the setuid in mount.ecryptfs_private. This is what this wrapper script attempts to achieve: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1427904/ Sample usage is in the header.
