Re: [Wlug] sshfs + certificate files + fstab?
What userid is invoking sshfs? If its in /etc/fstab, and you're using a setuid /bin/mount, it might be looking for authorized_keys under the setuid id's homedir (root?). In which case, you might also want to add "-o allow_other", and double-check the other sshfs options. Since I'm the only user of my sytsem, I use a little script, do it all under my userid, and avoid /etc/fstab. -Jamie On Fri, 21 Sep 2007, Eric Stein wrote:
I already do this for normal ssh and it doesn't work for sshfs - I get queried for my password anyway.

I could be wrong with this, but, while playing with Tomboy note syncing over
ssh, one uses FUSE+sshfs, and for them to work, you need to have your key in
a running instance of ssh-agent (any ssh agent will do i think). So, for it
to work, ssh-agent has to be running for me @ login. This "might" be your
issue. Then again I could be way off.

Could I get a look at that script? Eric Jamie Guinan wrote:
