Hi Valient.

>From some threads on this mailing list it looks like that people are
generally able to NFS-share an encfs encrypted directory.
However, I am having some difficulties. Could anyone share their NFS
server /etc/exports  settings and the corresponding NFS client mount
options?

Symptoms:
When I am logged in on the file server and mount my encrypted
directory I can use it as expected.
The NFS daemon on this server is setup to share the parent directory
of my encrypted directory.
When I NFS-mount that share from a client machine I can read&write
everything under that share except for the encrypted directory which I
only see as an empty directory.

Here is my /etc/export on the server:
/home/rick  192.168.0.0/24(rw,root_squash,async,subtree_check)

I set up encfs to use /home/rick/Private and /home/rick/.Private
myserver$ls -al /home/rick/Private
total 12
drwxrwx---  2 rick users 4096 2009-04-11 19:35 .
drwxr-xr-x 11 rick rick  4096 2009-04-10 11:48 ..
-rw-rw----  1 rick users    6 2009-04-11 19:35 hello.txt

myserver$ls -al /home/rick/.Private
total 16
drwxrwx---  2 rick users 4096 2009-04-11 19:35 .
drwxr-xr-x 11 rick rick  4096 2009-04-11 19:43 ..
-rw-rw----  1 rick users   22 2009-04-11 19:35 CibhA,7OvIrTPgh9V2iuteSj
-rw-rw----  1 rick users  922 2009-04-05 13:02 .encfs6.xml


On the client I am mounting the NFS share simply with:
sudo mount 192.168.0.7:/home/rick /mnt/rick
( I can't mount it without sudo)


mylaptop$ ls -al /mnt/rick/Private
total 8
drwxrwx---  2 rick users 4096 2009-04-05 13:28 .
drwxr-xr-x 11 rick rick  4096 2009-04-10 11:48 ..

(empty)

Any ideas?
Thanks
