Re: Auto-mounting sshfs from /etc/fstab
Hello, Well, no I haven't -- I have tried only the fstab route which does serve the purpose for me.

Auto-mounting sshfs from /etc/fstab
Hello all, I've been trying to find a page on the Internet where an example is posted explaining how to mount sshfs from /etc/fstab, but I can't find any! I'm on 9.1-PR amd64 and I've installed Fuse and sshfs, I have enabled Fuse in rc.conf and I can see /dev/fuse. Furthermore, using sshfs from the command line, I am even able to mount the remote file system. I can manually mount the remote file system using: *sshfs user@host:/ /mnt* Then, I do 'mount -p' and get: */dev/fuse0 /mnt fusefs.sshfs rw,sync 0 0* This isn't sufficient for mounting/unmounting from fstab since it's missing the authentication details I've used in sshfs. So.. the question is: How to add the authentication details to /etc/fstab so that I can mount the sshfs just by using: *mount /mnt* Thanks in advance, and kindly Cc me on your replies! /OriS ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Also untested, but possible, if you want it to happen system-wide: Add a section to /etc/rc.local: echo -n sshfs /usr/local/bin/sshfs your parameters And to /etc/rc.shutdown.local: echo -n sshfs umount where it was mounted to Note that you can add additional configuration tweaks by using the rc.conf mechanism, and you can also add tests to increase reliability. -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
Re: Auto-mounting sshfs from /etc/fstab
In the past I wanted to do so in my system. I had one server called pluto and I wanted to sshfs one directory from my laptop. The first thing I had to do was to make passwordless ssh from my laptop to the server (there are a lot of pages in the internet to explain how to do this, so I will not explain how-to...) When passwordless ssh login is possible then a line in your fstab like the following does the job: sshfs#your_username_here@pluto:/Common/ /Network_Folders/Pluto/ fuse BatchMode=yes,reconnect,allow_other,users,gid=users,umask=002 0 0 In this way the system automounts the directory /Common that exists in pluto in my local directory /Network_Folders/Pluto Of cource pluto must have a specific ip (or available through naming service e.t.c.). In my case it has a static IP so I had its declaration in /etc/hosts Hope this helped you Elias ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
