I'm running a laptop with my home directory encrypted using encfs.
This means, of course, that ~/.ssh/authorized_keys is encrypted, and
in fact doesn't even exist unless my home directory has been mounted.

The practical implication of this is that when I ssh in to the laptop
from another machine, the behavior is different depending on whether
I'm already logged in to the laptop.  The first ssh session requires
me to enter my password (since authorized_keys can't be checked);
once I'm logged in, I can log in to new sessions without a password.

So...  is anyone aware of a way I can authenticate myself without a
password, and without a useable authorized_keys file?
