I'm trying to run sshfs on Android. This is essentially a Proof of Concept for something else I'm trying to do (essentially a FUSE mount backed by an SSL connection to a remote server), but I figured that getting the binary working would be a decent POC (my eventual goal is to build an Android service that does this).
Using the OpenMoko Toolchain (since the ndk toolchain doesn't have all the required headers), I got the Fuse library and the (static) sshfs binary to build. I pushed it to a development handset, and tried running it (via an ADB root prompt). When using an SSHFS command that worked on a ubuntu box (both are connecting to a Mac on the same local network), I get the following error: read: Connection reset by peer Looking into this error, it appears to have something to do with the ssh layer not being setup correctly (sometimes it happens due to issues with known_hosts). Since the root user on Android doesn't have a standard account setup, I'm guessing that this is causing it to not work. I'm also having trouble getting a command-line ssh client to work (and I believe it's for similar reasons). When I download ConnectBot, it connects just fine, although that isn't using a full command-line client (it's just a library that is invoked using JNI). Any hints or suggestions on getting this to work? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
