Mounting sharedscratch locally

Thanks to Phil in Computer Support for this:
1) If you're not on a computer within the theory sector, first you'll need to set up the VPN client as instructed here. Then connect to the VPN.
2) Create a mount point for your sharedscratch:
mkdir [desired mount point]
3) Use sshfs to mount your sharedscratch at the directory you created:
sshfs [cluster].ch.cam.ac.uk:/sharedscratch/[your username] [desired mount point]
e.g. For me to do it on Volkhan:
mkdir ~/sharedscratch sshfs volkhan.ch.cam.ac.uk:/sharedscratch/khs26 ~/sharedscratch
