SSHFS jeffbonhag On OS X: - Download the lastest version of OSXFUSE: http://osxfuse.github.io/[1] - brew install sshfs Now you can mount a ssh server by issuing the following commands: mkdir tilde.club sshfs jeffbonhag@tilde.club:/home/jeffbonhag tilde.club If you’re on Linux and want to make an entry in your fstab: mkdir -p /mnt/tilde.club Put an entry in your /etc/fstab like this: jeffbonhag@tilde.club:/home/jeffbonhag /mnt/tilde.club fuse.sshfs _netdev,user,idmap=user,transform_symlinks,allow_other,default_permissions,uid=jeff,gid=jeff,umask=0 0 0 then you can do mount /mnt/tilde.club If you want to use an identity file to mount instead of a password, this may work (untested): jeffbonhag@tilde.club:/home/jeffbonhag /mnt/tilde.club fuse.sshfs _netdev,user,idmap=user,transform_symlinks,identityfile=/home/USER_C/.ssh/id_rsa,allow_other,default_permissions,uid=USER_C_ID,gid=GROUP_C_ID,umask=0 0 0 Although – do you really need to do this? It just occurred to me that the first command is just as easy, and probably makes more sense. [1] http://osxfuse.github.io/
