sshfs is a program with which one can open(or edit) a remote filesystem in unix( i think it also can work under fat and ntfs). It’s extremely important in cases where vnc is not possible, since only console is available.
The installation process is very simple and i won’t describe anything more here. For more information check:
http://fuse.sourceforge.net/sshfs.html
sshfs creates a group under the name fuse. In order to be able to run an executable as a user, this user should have to be
inside that group, have permissions over the newly mounted file and have execute access at /usr/bin/fusermount and /etc/fuse.conf. These things happen after issuing the commands below:
adduser ForTheWin fuse mkdir mountDir chown ForTheWin:fuse mountDir chown ForTheWin:fuse /dev/fuse chmod +x /usr/bin/fusermount chmod +x /etc/fuse.conf
If you like you can also add a line at /etc/fstab :
sshfs#user@server.domain.com:/starting/path fuse user,allow_other 0 0
(maybe noauto is better for you)
And then you can finally mount the filesystem :
sshfs name@remoteHost:remoteFilePath localMountPoint
In case /dev/fuse module cannot be found, load it with :
modprobe /dev/fuse
Loading ...
