====== SSHFS ======

SSHFS is a simple way to mount remote filesystems accessible via SSH.

===== Install SSHFS =====

==== CentOS ====

<file>
yum install sshfs
</file>

==== Ubuntu ====

<file>
sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install sshfs
</file>

===== Mount a Remote Filesystem =====

:!: Use ''sudo'' as necessary on Ubuntu/Debian.

<file>
sshfs root@<hostname or IP>:/path/to/mount /mount/point/
</file>

Example mounting as a regular user on a non-standard SSH port:

:!: The regular user must have write privileges to the mountpoint.

<file>
sudo mkdir /mnt/www
sudo chmod 777 /mnt/www
sshfs -p 2222 root@www.yourdomain.tld:/home /mnt/www/
</file>

Dismount the remote filesystem:

<file>
umount /mnt/www/
</file>

or

<file>
sudo umount /mnt/www/
</file>
