  sign           Must use packet signing (helps avoid unwanted data modification
 		by intermediate systems in the route).  Note that signing
 		does not work with lanman or plaintext authentication.
+ seal           Must seal (encrypt) all data on this mounted share before
+		sending on the network.  Requires support for Unix Extensions.
+		Note that this differs from the sign mount option in that it
+		causes encryption of data sent over this mounted share but other
