    Question SSHFS and ecryptfs

    Hello all,

    I am trying to mount SSHFS and then mount an ecryptfs encrypted directory inside of it. I have been able to do this with root. I have added the mounts to fstab with a user option so I can have non-root users mounting them. Using a non-root user I am able to mount SSHFS and I can mount an ecryptfs directory as long as the ecryptfs directory is not located within the SSHFS mount. When I try to mount the ecryptfs directory within an SSHFS directory using a non-root use I am presented with an error that there is a misconfiguration.

    Anybody have any insight? I am stumped.

    Thank You

    Use enfs instead of eCryptfs.

    encfs works in the user space instead of the kernal space by default.
