The amazing simplicity of sshfs

So I'm out for a few minutes, waiting in a lounge during a children's choir rehearsal. And I want something off my home server.

sudo apt-get install sshfs
ssh_port=12345                  # Use your own port number, of course
server_name=myserver.dyndns.org # Use your own server, of course
user_name=myname                # Your username on the server
local_mount_point=/path/to/local/mountpoint
mkdir ${local_mount_point}
fwknop -A 'tcp/${ssh_port}' -s -D ${server_name}
sshfs ${user_name}@${server_name}:/path/on/server ${local_mount_point} -p ${ssh_port}

And SHAZAM! Remote server path shows up in File Manager.

No mucking with Samba or PPTP or other strangeness. Just

sshfs me@myserver.dyndns.org:/mnt/Common/ /tmp/server/ -p 12345

To unmount:

fusermount -u ${local_mount_point}
