Sshfs
From Klaus' wiki
SSHFS is a file system, that works over a SSH tunnel.
In order to mount a remote file system (e.g. from your development host) on your local account on the main host (bren) issue these commands:
$ ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub username@host $ mkdir <-p> <mountpoint> $ sshfs <username>@<hostip>:/home <mountpoint>
where the ssh-copy-id copies your public ssh-key to the remote host and where ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub is where your ssh keys resides. If there are no id_rsa.pub you should generate a pair of keys:
$ ssh-keygen
just hit enter to all prompts.
Then you shall create the mountpoint - that is the directory on where you will mount the remote filesystem. The -p creates all directories if they do not exists.
Finally issue the sshfs command to mount the remote file system on the mountpoint.
