Thanks for the quick response and the clarification.

Further tests show that sshfs does support IPv6 addresses, but not the
numerical form. For example this fails:

sshfs-static-10.5 [EMAIL PROTECTED]::1]:/Users/ /test/ -oreconnect,volname=test

but, if I add the following entry to /etc/hosts:

::1             localhost-ipv6

then this works:

sshfs-static-10.5 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/Users/ /test/ -
oreconnect,volname=test

I will contact the sshfs developers in this regards. Note that the
format I tried specifying in the first example
corresponds to what I would have used for scp:

scp myfile.txt [EMAIL PROTECTED]::1]:/tmp/
