I just checked this machine and 4 others, all of whom are mounted to their own named directory as subdirs of /sshnet, which work perfectly without a mention of it in any machines /etc/fstab. Adding the new machine as the last line in this $HOME/bin/mount-machines bash script: ------------ #!/bin/bash sshfs [email protected]:/ /sshnet/sixty40 sshfs gene@lathe:/ /sshnet/lathe sshfs gene@GO704:/ /sshnet/GO704 sshfs pi@rpi4:/ /sshnet/rpi4 sshfs gene@TLM:/ /sshnet/TLM sshfs gene@3dprint:/ /sshnet/3dprint -------------- Thats 5 machines that Just Work, and the last says: read: Connection reset by peer sshfs has been installed, but its not running. How do I start it? Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
