Who's mounting it during boot?  It isn't listed in /etc/fstab.

What does /etc/mtab say ?

BTW, google "ubuntu .Private folder" gives you a number of hits along the lines of jimmythedestroyer's post.

9.04 supports an encrypted /home folder.  It probably was created more
or less behind the scenes during install/upgrade.  If your df output
looks like mine, your / partition is probably 3% full as well.

Shouldn't be anything to worry about and is actually pretty cool if
you ask me :)

Today I was going to switch it to replace a dying web server.
I ran df and noticed this oddity:
/home/abrown/.Private  19228276    385032  17866496   3%
/home/abrown/Private

And
$ ls -al /home/abrown/Private /home/abrown/.Private
/home/abrown/Private:
total 8
drwx------  2 abrown abrown 4096 2008-12-28 13:19 .
drwxr-xr-x 56 abrown abrown 4096 2009-11-17 16:57 ..

/home/abrown/.Private:
total 8
drwx------  2 abrown abrown 4096 2008-12-28 13:19 .
drwxr-xr-x 56 abrown abrown 4096 2009-11-17 16:57 ..


Odd.  I don't remember creating this.  I don't know why I would.
And 3% used.  Yet any way I look at it, it is empty.
Does this look odd to you?
