Perhaps my sequence of actions wasn't clear. Here is what I did -- 1. installed MacFuse by downloading it, double clicking, installing 2. installed MacPorts sshfs and sshfs-gui using `sudo port install <portname>` 3. $`sshfs` failed to work. Console showed that MacFuse failed to load because of wrong architecture 4. Saw ticket #30639 5. uninstalled MacFuse 6. uninstalled sshfs and sshfs using `sudo port uninstall <portname>` 7. installed Fuse4x by downloading it, double clicking, installing 8. reinstalled MacPorts sshfs still got the above message Looked in /System/Library/FileSystems and found fuse4x stuff in it... good. Looked in /Library/FileSystems, made sure there was nothing related to MacFuse in it... good. repeated #6-8 above. Still got the above message. 9. installed sshfs from Fuse4x web site. That got installed in /usr/local/bin. Everything works now. _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-users
