Could you give us some examples where PATH_MAX was too low for you using ecryptfs ?
I (for the moment) do not run into troubles using EncFS.

And examples where PATH_MAX is too low using Rsync ?
Is it too low when we want to sync from Linux to FreeBSD ? Or from FreeBSD to Linux ?
Using Rsync over SSH ? Or using the Rsync daemon on the receiving side ?

Thank you very much !
