Dustin,

Thanks for the suggestions.  I unfortunately had to redo the user
without ecryptfs (I was mostly testing anyway).  My primary objective
was testing out our Active Directory KDC and whilst there thought "How
does ecryptfs deal with this setup?".  I will redo this soon and get
back on this thread unless someone chimes in first.

Thanks,

Robert
