Looks good to me -- I use some FUSE encryption setup which looks
similar, but it's been years since I set it up. It wasn't hard. It
has one decided quirk which I consider a feature -- root can read the
encrypted volume for backup but *cannot* access the plaintext volume.
Another quirk is that filenames are padded to multiples of some
configurable length before encryption; these are visible to root. I
suppose root could even manipulate them, but I have never tried it.
I mount and umount it without root, but I think it required initial
root access to load a kernel module. Now that happens automatically.
This may be a problem if you have no root access at all.
If you need more details, I suppose I can figure out what I did, but
that Linux Journal article looks pretty thorough.
