Mounting

When working on many computers, you may wish to access and interact with the contents of some number of directories located elsewhere. To secure copy (scp) all the files between computers is tiresome and has issues with version control. The sshfs command mimics this procedure. A similar tool is Rsync.

Syntax

sshfs -ofollow_symlinks what-to-mount where-to-mount

e.g. sshfs -ofollow_symlinks cerebro: /scratch/tes36/mount/cerebro
