NAME

umount.ecryptfs_private - eCryptfs private unmount helper.

SYNOPSIS

umount.ecryptfs_private [-f]

NOTE: This program will not clear the relevant keys from the user’s keyring. For this reason, it is recommended that users use ecryptfs-umount-private (1) instead!

OPTIONS

Options available for the umount.ecryptfs_private command:

-f

Force the unmount, ignoring the value of the mount counter in /tmp/ecryptfs-USERNAME-Private

DESCRIPTION

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
- the mount counter is 0 (counter is ignored if -f option is used)

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).

FILES

˜/.Private - underlying directory containing encrypted data

˜/Private - mountpoint containing decrypted data (when mounted)

˜/.ecryptfs/Private.sig - file containing signature of mountpoint passphrase

/tmp/ecryptfs-USERNAME-Private - file containing the mount counter, incremented on each mount, decremented on each unmount
