Package: sshfs
Version: 2.1-1
Severity: important

I installed sshfs and added myself to the group "fuse." After logging in
and out, I tried to connect to a remote host and received the error message:

> fuse: failed to open /dev/fuse: Permission denied

I managed to get this working by modifying the group of the /dev/fuse device

# chmod root.fuse /dev/fuse

And was able to connect.

/usr/bin/fuse shows

> -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 57K 2008-08-30 08:36 /usr/bin/sshfs*

In other words, the out-of-the-box installation apparently does not work.

Please let me know if I need further information.
