I'm having issues with the first mount of eCryptFS. Currently when I attempt to mount it

mount -t ecryptfs ~/.Private ~/Private

However it's erroring. The error in dmesg is the following:

Error parsing options; rc = [-22]

This is a fresh installation of Arch and I've yet to have this issue with other distributions. I'm not quite sure what the issue is however.

Thanks!

It appears eCryptFS is now in the kernel however the extra end user utilities aren't pre-bundled with Arch (duh). The issue is they're not in the normal repository however there appears to be an AUR package that is kept up-to-date.

Long story short: install the ecryptfs-utils package
