About shfs
Shfs is a simple and easy to use Linux kernel module which allows you to mount remote filesystems using plain shell (ssh) connection. Then you can access all remote files just like the local ones. Shfs supports some nice features:
file cache for access speedup
perl and shell code for the remote (server) side
could preserve uid/gid (root connection)
number of remote host platforms (Linux, Solaris, Cygwin, ...)
Linux kernel 2.4.10+ and 2.6
arbitrary command used for connection (instead of ssh)
persistent connection (reconnect after ssh dies)
Changes:
huge portions rewritten, smbfs/ncpfs dir cache code assimilated
"server" code moved to userspace
user option added for shfsmount, shfsumount removed (thanks to Markus Kuhn, mkuhn at users.sourceforge.net).
remote OS detection removed (great tips/patches from Csaba Henk, ekho at renyi.hu)
shell code fixes
perl server support added
persistent option added
preserve works r/w (perl server)
any command is supported for connection (--cmd option)
shfsmount options added (automounter support)
debug support changed (can be turned on at mount time: -v option)
file cache memory leak hopefully fixed
SMP fixes
emacs should be working now (time sync troubles workarounded)
docs update
http://shfs.sourceforge.net/
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=72997&package_id=93905&release_id=225546
