*I want to create a usb drive that opens an ssh connection to my desktop when I plug it in, can anyone help?*

Hey everyone, I'm pretty new to the whole linux/ubuntu thing and I have been curious for a while if something was possible.

I created a home server that my laptop automounts a sshfs with but I was wondering if it was possible to do the same sort of thing with a usb flash drive. That is, make it so when I plug it into any computer my home server can be accessed through the flash drives folder.

This is just a sort of side project I decided to try but it seems like it could be fun. If you need any more details give me a shout.
