I have a data drive that is having issues mounting on boot. Occasionally my backup program runs when it's not mounted and dumps the back ups to /home/.ecryptfs/user/.Private, which has filled my OS disk. Is there an easy way to delete those files? Can I just delete everything in the directory and let it rebuild? I'mn not %100 clear on how ecryptfs works.
