On the local computer where the SSHFS is mounted, the implemen‐ tation makes use of the FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace) kernel module. The practical effect of this is that the end user can seamlessly interact with remote files being securely served over SSH just as if they were local files on his/her computer. On the remote computer the SFTP subsystem of SSH is used. __ __ _ _ | \/ | ___ _ _ _ _ | |_ (_) _ _ __ _ | |\/| |/ _ \| || || ' \| _|| || ' \ / _` | |_| |_|\___/ \_,_||_||_|\__||_||_||_|\__, | |___/ ============================================ sshfs user@host:dir-to-be-mounted mount-point _ _ _ _ | | | | _ _ _ __ ___ _ _ _ _ | |_ (_) _ _ __ _ | |_| || ' \ | ' \ / _ \| || || ' \| _|| || ' \ / _` | \___/ |_||_||_|_|_|\___/ \_,_||_||_|\__||_||_||_|\__, | |___/ ======================================================== fusermount -u mount-point
