SSHFS ( S ecure SH ell F ile S ystem ) is a network file system , the data storage other computer via SSH to a secure manner over an encrypted network connection into its own file system mounted can be.

use

SSHFS is used to use files and directories on a remote computer like local files and directories without the remote computer having to provide a network file system service such as CIFS or NFS . On the other side, only an SSH server with activated SFTP function needs to be operated. SSHFS is therefore the implementation of the Unix philosophy of Everything is a file at the secure shell level.

implementation

Client and server communicate via the SSH File Transfer Protocol (SFTP), a network protocol that enables file access, file transfer and file management via a reliable data stream . It is independent of the server's underlying file system. SSHFS is based on the FUSE framework and works in user mode .

distribution

It is available in the standard repositories of all major Linux distributions such as Debian , openSuse , Arch Linux and Ubuntu and its derivatives, as well as being included as standard on live systems such as Grml and Knoppix . It is also available for FreeBSD , OpenBSD , OpenSolaris , macOS and Android .
