Re: [Bug 256154] Re: pam_ecryptfs should respect ~/.ecryptfs/auto-[u]mount files

 

I am not clear on what are you trying to accomplish.  Please clarify
exactly what you're trying to do, what does, and does not work, and
where you feel that documentation is lacking.

Thanks.

 * "I hope there will also be an option for the ~/Private directory to ''not'' be mounted at login"

Additionally, it would be nice to allow a user to "not unmount" ~/Private automatically on logout.

The hooks are already in place in ecryptfs-setup-private to create the ~/.ecryptfs/auto-mount and ~/.ecryptfs/auto-umount files.  We simply need to teach pam_ecryptfs to respect that configuration.
