Hello,
I have installed both encfs and pam_mount. I have successfully created an encrypted directory with encfs, which I can mount manually. Now I want to automatically mount this encrypted directory at login. pam_mount is made for exactly that purpose, but I could not configure it correctly.
I have set
in /etc/sysctl.conf.
In my pam_mount.conf.xml I have the line:
And in my home directory, I have a file .pam_mount.conf.xml:
I got the "volume" line from the man page of pam_mount.conf.
But it does not work. I have turned on the debug messages for pam_mount and found out that it tried to execute mount.fuse, which it did not find. It seems to be hardcoded into pam_mount, but on FreeBSD, the program is called mount_fusefs, mount.fuse would be the program on a Linux system.
I have then symlinked mount.fuse to mount_fusefs, so it could be found by pam_mount, but then it complained that it could not find "encfs#/home/adam/.Secure". It seems that the syntax of mount_fusefs on FreeBSD is different from mount.fuse on Linux.
I searched the web for working configurations of encfs with pam_mount, but all examples I found were for Linux, none for FreeBSD.
So, did anyone succeed in running pam_mount with encfs on FreeBSD?
