Subject: Kernel Module / Patch with implements "sshfs"

Hi folks,

i came across the idea to mount a remote filesystem via SSH[1|2].

I've seen a free program for Windows that implements parts of what i'm
thinking of.

Does someone know about a kernel module/patch to implement a "sshfs" ?
(to be used with mount)

What i want to do is to mount my webserver (external ip) from an internal
system (internal ip).

Thanks,
Thomas

Check out freeswan (http://www.freeswan.org). It adds IPsec support to the linux
kernel.

Once you have a tunnel setup with IPsec, you can use nfs, or whatever other
network file system over the internet safely...

A simpler way is to use the kio_fish
http://apps.kde.com/na/2/info/id/1331
(I had problem with compiling this under SuSE 7.1 but with
SuSE 7.3 there were no problems)

You browsing will look like:
fish://192.168.9.99/home/
compare with
ftp://ftp.kernel.org/

And since it is KDE all KDE programs will be able to use it :-)
(To be sure I tried to create a file with advanced editor and save it
remote - it worked! :-)

And if you use uservfs (.sourceforge.net), all programs can do
that. As good as if it was kernelspace, but it stays userland.
