I'm trying to find a way to use eCryptFS to secure the "at rest" data on a
server. 

I have ecryptfs installed and I understand how to encrypt a directory. What
I am missing, is how to mount the ecryptfs encrypted folder at boot (i.e.
fstab). 

I have been Googling for a few hours but everything I have found is how to
mount an encrypted home folder, which is not what I am looking to
accomplish.

Kind regards,
/Raj
