My wife has frequently talked about using our webhost as a place to store her personal files in the event that both her computer and our server here fail. Today I downloaded FUSE and SSHFS-FUSE and installed them both. I was able to mount our account on our webhost to a directory in our shared account on our local server, like this:
sshfs [EMAIL PROTECTED]: /mountpoint /mountpoint is a subdirectory in /shared, which is shared out via Samba so that we can get to it through either Windows or Linux. When moving around via the command line, I can get to that mounted directory and look around just fine. However, the GID and UID are 3187 and 1000, respectively, which I assume are the GID and UID of our account on Pair's server. I tried creating a user on our local account with the UID 3187 and a group called pairuser with the GID 1000, and added both my wife's and my accounts to that group. Now, if I'm logged in to the server, I can cd to the mountpoint just fine and browse around. However, I can't cd to it from the command line on my own Linux box, and I certainly can't see it through Windows. I suspect I'm missing something very simple. Any ideas, anyone? -- Richard S.
