umount.ecryptfs_private − eCryptfs private unmount helper.
umount.ecryptfs_private
umount.ecryptfs_private is a mount helper utility for non-root users to unmount a cryptographically mounted private directory, ~/Private.
If, and only
if:
- the private mount passphrase is in their kernel keyring,
and
- the current user owns both ~/.Private and ~/Private, and
- ~/.Private is currently mounted on ~/Private
This program
will:
- unmount ~/Private
The only setuid operationis in this program are the call to umount and updating /etc/mtab.
The system administrator can add the pam_ecryptfs.so module to the PAM stack and automatically perform the unmount on logout. See pam_ecryptfs(8).
~/.Private - underlying directory containing encrypted data
~/Private - mountpoint containing decrypted data (when mounted)
