I use ecryptfs extensively to encrypt user's home directories, and it works just great and thanks to pam_ecryptfs almost out-of-the-box. I always disliked the hoops one has to go through to setup dm-crypt & PAM in a proper and sane way and ecryptfs works well enough. What alternatives are out there? fscrypt is not quite there yet, same for encrypted ext4. I wonder what other people use to encrypt a user's home directory. Full disk encryption seems to be pretty popular, but is equally tricky to set up properly. So, thanks for keeping ecryptfs alive, I guess :-) Christian. -- BOFH excuse #148: Insert coin for new game -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe ecryptfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
