OK, I've reported a bug against the sshfs documentation: According to the sshfs documentation: ---- quote from /usr/share/doc/sshfs/README ---------------------------- Once sshfs is installed (see next section) running it is very simple: sshfs hostname: mountpoint Note, that it's recommended to run it as user, not as root. For this to work the mountpoint must be owned by the user. [...] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ and the sshfs FAQ doesn't say much more. But under Debian, this is not sufficient: the user also needs to be in group fuse, otherwise one gets the following error: fuse: failed to open /dev/fuse: Permission denied I think that sshfs should come with a README.Debian file saying this kind of things. (Note: even though /dev/fuse is readable only by user root and group fuse, needing to add the user to group fuse is not obvious, as sshfs could be sgid fuse or execute a program that is sgid fuse to avoid this step.) http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=465916 -- Vincent Lefèvre <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.org/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <http://www.vinc17.org/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / Arenaire project (LIP, ENS-Lyon) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
