Subject: Wrapper to mount Private directories without root
Date: Wed, 12 Dec 2012 16:58:41 +0000 (UTC)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <loom.20121212T175359-906@post.gmane.org> (raw)

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.

Cheers,
David-
