If to cipher the user home catalog of the encfs with an option allow_root then cannot mount it in $HOME. The problem has appeared after updating package fuse 2.8.1-4 to 2.8.4-1. How to reproduce: # # F12/F13 (x86_64), fuse >= 2.8.2 # # yum install fuse-encfs # echo -e "user_allow_other\n" > /etc/fuse.conf $ encfs /media/user /tmp/user If directories not exist, then answer "yes" to create it. To agree on all other options by default. Type password for encrypted folder. Copy /home/user to /tmp/user $ fusermount -u /tmp/user # su -l user -c 'encfs -o allow_root,nonempty /media/user /home/user' After password input absolutely occurs nothing. Including mount. The same operation under the user yields identical result. $ encfs -o allow_root,nonempty /media/user /home/user (typing password and happens nothing) Without option allow_root well works.
