This makes little sense. The main difference between user and users is that the former only allows the user who mounted the filesystem (or root) to unmount the filesystem, whereas the latter (plural) relaxes this rule and allows any user to unmount the filesystem.

As far as I'm aware "/etc/crypttab" is for systems that use that atrocity called systemd. So unless you have your system set up to use systemd, "/etc/conf.d/dmcrypt" is the correct one to use.

I still, however, think you can achieve what you intend to with fstab. I personally tested what I wrote in my previous email and, apart from the usual false error message, it mounts it exactly where I've described in /etc/fstab. I can also eject it via Device Notifier. Could it be that there's something else going on in your case? - Victor
