    FYI, it seems that the location of fusermount has changed as of Gutsy Gibbon (7.10)
    It's now in /bin/fusermount instead of /usr/bin/fusermount

    You just put your remote username and @ before the remote machine address, like so:
    Code:
    sshfs username@remote-system-name:/remote-folder /media/mount-name
    A computer without Microsoft is like a chocolate cake without mustard.

    Re: HOWTO: Mount SSH Shares

    I had the same problem and this is what I did to fix it!

    #add user to fuse
    adduser user fuse

    Then this part is what took me the longest to figure out.

    LOGOFF!!

    Yep after four hours it dawned on me that maybe in order to reset my group setting I may have to logoff!!

    Work great!

    Re: HOWTO: Mount SSH Shares

    I'm compiling fuse for developing. The source was retrieved by apt-get and was compiled naively with no additional option. This is what I got when trying the example in fuse code:

    fusermount: mount failed: Operation not permitted

    I've looked at all the suggestions in previous threads and I'm sure that there's nothing wrong with my setup. After banging my head on the wall and lots of hair pulling, this is what I've found:

    - The binaries in fuse example link against libfuse.so in my compilation, which turns out to be the problem.
    - To validate this, I wrote a small program using fuse. Linking against the libfuse.so provided by Ubuntu works just fine, but linking against the one I compiled poses "Operation not permitted".

    I thought I missed some option during configure, but it turns out not very likely. So I think Ubuntu is doing something funky here.

    And btw, this is Ubuntu Hardy and fuse-2.7.2. I hope this can save some of us lots of frustrating hours.

    Cheers.

    Re: HOWTO: Mount SSH Shares

    When I first started to use sshfs a couple of months ago, I found that copying files and browsing directories would cause my system to hang ... only for a couple of seconds - but it was enough to make the system cumbersome.

    Adding the following parameters to the standard 'sshfs' command, made my connection run MUCH faster.. ymmv, but I thought I'd pass on the tip.

    -o ServerAliveInterval=15 -o cache_timeout=600

    All,

    I was having the same problem until I used an option with sshfs:

    Code:
    $ sudo sshfs -o allow_other <SERVER_SSH_USERNAME>@<SERVER_EXTERNAL_IP>:/<SHARED_DIRECTORY_ON_SERVER> /<WHERE_TO_MOUNT_ON_CLIENT>
    The -o allow_other will allow any user on the local client to open the folder. Remember that the read/write is done on the Server side not on the client side. But the access to the SSH pipe is determined on the client side. Thus this option is allowing any user to access the ssh pipe!

    Ahhhh, encryption!!

    1) Install the software
    sudo apt-get install sshfs

    2) Add fuse to /etc/modules
    sudo nano /etc/modules

    3) Add yourself to the 'fuse' group, then log out and log in again.
    sudo adduser your-username fuse

    4) Create a mountpoint and give yourself ownership
    sudo mkdir /media/mount-name
    sudo chown your-username /media/mount-name

    5) Mount the filesystem
    sshfs remote-system-name:/remote-folder /media/mount-name

    6) Unmount the filesystem
    fusermount -u /media/mount-name

    Directions taken from http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/10/...m-using-sshfs/ More info on sshfs is available at http://fuse.sourceforge.net/sshfs.html

    I've run into a strange problem on two Kubuntu machines where, after using sshfs, you're unable to unlock your own computer. Logging in works fine, but you can't return from a password-protected screensaver. My solution was to start a new session, change my password, then return to the old session and use the new password to unlock it.

    Thanks a lot - works.
