OK, MacFuse and SSHFS is what you want.

MacFUSE is indeed the easiest and fastest way to do this.  But it is not an 
application.  It is not possible to do what MacFUSE does as an application, and 
if you don't understand why that is  you will have on-going problems.  So it's 
important to understand *why* MacFUSE is not an application before you use it.

I already have.  Did you read the articles that I pointed you to in my last 
message?

No, what you are asking for is for someone to spoon-feed you.  MacFuse is 
exceptionally well documented.  Of course, the documentation assumes a certain 
background which you apparently lack.  There's nothing wrong with that.  
There's no reason for you to feel stupid because you don't know these things.  
No one is born knowing these things.  But (and you should particularly pay 
attention to this because it could be the most important thing you will learn 
from this experience) you should not take offense when someone points out that 
you do not know these things, even if they do it inartfully.  *That* will make 
you look more stupid than anything else.  (It will also make people less 
inclined to offer help.)

So chill, dude.  Go do your homework, and then if you still have more 
questions, come back and ask them.
