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
