Hello,
Yesterday I was trying to use sshfs.
I use the 5.8 release.
1)
The man page of sshfs says:
mounting
sshfs [user@]host:[dir] mountpoint [options]
unmounting
fusermount -u mountpoint
However, the fusermount command does not exists
on my system, contrary to sshfs, which got installed
using the sshfs-fuse package.
After spending some time to find fusermount, I
found that a simple umount works instead...
Shouldn't the man page of sshfs be changed to
state and reflect that?
2)
After putting
kern.usermount=1
into /etc/sysctl.conf and changing the rights
chmod 660 /dev/fuse0
I was then able to mount a remote filesystem, but
I ran into permission problems. Thus I tried
to add -o idmap=user into the command, which
results in immediate diconnecting:
$ sshfs -o idmap=user [email protected]: mnt/du3
remote host has disconnected
$ sshfs [email protected]: mnt/du3 -o idmap=user
remote host has disconnected
$ sshfs [email protected]: mnt/du3
[email protected]'s password:
The -o idmap option is documented in the map page
and I use a command like this on Linux.
Do you have any comments or can you help?
Thanks!
Ruda
