Hi!Having read about this marvellous achievement, I decided immediately to try fuse on my PowerBook. Using the Google-supplied MacFUSE and sshfs .dmg's it worked immediately and the way one would expect: you click on sshfs, enter the destination info into the window which pops up and find the fuse mount as a new volume in the finder. When you're done you click on the eject button and it's gone.
Now, with the Fink version there is no popup window, but hey, I'm glad to have a popup blocker in my browser ;-) So I mount server from the command line and voila: it works. There's even a new volume in the Finder, albeit named quite generic "FUSE Volume 0". The only "problem" is, that the eject button does not work, sometimes it closes the current view but it does not remove the icon or unmount the sshfs. Issuing 'umount <mnt>' removes the mount, but the sshfs process stays alive. That problem can be cured by "kill -9" (SIGTERM does not have an effect), but I have not found a way yet to get rid of that "FUSE Volume 0" lying on my Desktop. Double clicking simply opens a view into the empty directory which used to be the mount point.
What is the status?BTW: I installed Fuse.pm via cpan (had to use 'notest force' because the tests don't work), and fuseftp works as far as I could see. Being able to write my own filesystem in Perl sends shivers down my spine :-)
A propos: no kernel panics yet ;-) I half expected to see my machine crash when playing bad games with the fuse processes, but the kext seems stable enough to handle a dead handler...
Ciao,
Roland
