I'm trying to use ecryptfs on top of sshfs to be able to create create and access an encrypted share on a new NAS box.
The following mount command works on both the NAS box and my local mancine:
mount -t ecryptfs /DATA/a_folder /DATA/another_folder
to create an encrypted folder.
I'm able to use
sshfs root@nashost:/DATA/some_folder /home/me/nas_box
on my local machine to mount a folder form my NAS box. However once I've mounted it, if I try and use ecryptfs like this
mount -t ecryptfs /home/me/nas_box /DATA/decrypted
then I get the following error
Error mounting eCryptfs: [-13] Permission denied
Check your system logs; visit <http://launchpad.net/ecryptfs>
I've looked in /var/log/messages
on both machines, but there is nothing there. I've no idea if what I'm trying to do is possible or which logs to examine to help me.
Not sure if this matters but, the NAS box is Centos and my local machine is Ununtu.
Advise would be gratefully received.
just found the following in /var/log/syslog
mount.ecryptfs: could not resolve full path for source /home/me/nas_box [-13]
