I have encfs encrypted directory mounted with cryptkeeper. If I try to unmount that directory from Nautilus by pressing "eject" button it will show the following error: "unmount: /home/xxxxx/Encrypted is not in fstab (and you are not root)"

how to solve this problem?

Do not use your file manager (nautilus in your case) to unmount the encrypted folder.

Simply untick the relevant encrypted folder in the tray applet. It should dismount without any problem. To remount, you simply tick the encrypted folder again in the tray applet.
