My user has a cronjob setup to run 4 times a day, and every time the cronjob finishes, my ~/Private dir is unmounted. I ran a small script to print the exact time in which the directory was unmounted and then I matched that against /var/log/auth.log -- that's how I realized it was unmounted after my cronjob finishes. This is what I have in /var/log/auth.log

Status in “ecryptfs-utils” source package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Binary package hint: libecryptfs0 On my Asus EEE901, I have set up an encrypted private directory as per instructions on one of the developers blogs. It works perfectly, except that it seems to randomly unmount - it seems to be triggered by shutting the lid, but not always. This is Ubuntu Intrepid, all updates current, KDE desktop. All there is within my Private folder is .ssh/, .gnupg/, .opera/, and Documents/ all symlinked to the same name in my home folder. It's possible that this is by design that it unmounts when you leave your laptop, but if so this is redundant as it can be remounted immediately by using the mount.ecryptfs_private command without password prompting. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ecryptfs Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ecryptfs More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
