mount.ecryptfs(8)                  eCryptfs                  mount.ecryptfs(8)

NAME
       mount.ecryptfs - eCryptfs mount helper.


SYNOPSIS
       mount -t ecryptfs [lower directory] [ecryptfs mount point]


DESCRIPTION
       mount.ecryptfs is eCryptfs mount helper. The mount utility will defer
       to the mount helper to perform various configuration tasks; use the -i
       option to bypass the mount helper if you would rather manually specify
       your mount options. To mount eCryptfs, specify the lower directory
       (i.e., /root/crypt) for the encrypted files and the eCryptfs mountpoint
       (i.e., /mnt/crypt) for the decrypted view of the files:

       mount -t ecryptfs /root/crypt /mnt/crypt
