I have some multimedia files inside an EncFS folder (decrypted via cryptkeeper).
When trying to loop mount the ISO files I get:
mount: foo.iso: failed to setup loop device: Permission denied
There's no error mounting the same ISO from a «regular» FS.
Is there a way around this?

unSpawn at linuxquestions.org answered:
See 'man encfs': the warning at "--public" and 'man fuse': "allow_other"
Without setting the option 'public' in encfs or 'allow_other' is fuse, not even root can access the encfs mount and therefore mounting fails (sudo mount...).
Also, cryptkeeper now has the preference "Allow other users to access mounted folders" which gives exactly this kind of permission.
