Something, many of us were waiting for a long time: macfuse
I am quoting original site:
MacFUSE implements a mechanism that makes it possible to implement a fully functional file system in a user-space program on Mac OS X. It aims to be API-compliant with the FUSE (Filesystem in USErspace) mechanism that originated on Linux. Therefore, many existing FUSE file systems become readily usable on Mac OS X. The core of MacFUSE is in a dynamically loadable kernel extension. Moreover, the FUSE user-space library needs a few minor changes to work on Mac OS X.
Currently, the only implemented filesystem is sshfs
After installing, you should issue the following command in terminal to mount some remote system:
mkdir ~/test_mount
sshfs login@remote.computer.com:/remote/path ~/test_mount
Nice! I hope they managed to get around the problem of fs’ visibility to other local users (such as root).
well, as far as I am going to use this primarily on exclusively-mine workstations, this is not much of a problem
