[Bug 123501] Re: sshfs : : Permission denied
Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. However, I am closing it because the bug has been fixed in the latest development version of Ubuntu - Lucid Lynx. It won't be fixed in previous versions of Ubuntu because the package doesn't fit the requirements for backporting. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports for more information. I can now add the packages "sshfs" and "sshfs-utils" to Lucid, and use fuse without having to add myself to fuse group, log out, log in again, etc. The process appears to work much easier. ** Changed in: sshfs-fuse (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Changed in: sshfs-fuse (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Fix Released -- sshfs : : Permission denied https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/123501 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 123501] Re: sshfs : : Permission denied
Scratch that! I'm still having the same problem. I thought it was saving, but what actually happened is that the mount got drop between the time I opened it and saved it. So when I saved it, after executed newgrp fuse, it saved the file to the mount point that was empty. Any help would be appreciated. -- sshfs : : Permission denied https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/123501 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 123501] Re: sshfs : : Permission denied
After reading Damian Eads's post carefully, I noticed that I didn't execute this command: newgrp fuse After performing this command, I was able to save files on the remote file system. Note: At one time, that step wasn't necessary for me, but not it is for some reason. Why isn't adding my username to the fuse group enough anymore (it use to be)? I think the key thing to take away from this bug report, is that the entire process should be simplified somehow. Most tutorials don't even mention this step. This will continue to cause confusion for people who don't see this thread. Can the process be simplified for future users? -- sshfs : : Permission denied https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/123501 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 123501] Re: sshfs : : Permission denied
I'm using sshfs with Ubuntu 9.04 64 bit. I'm successfully mounting the remote file system, but when I try to update a file on the mounted remote file system (with gedit), I get the attached permissions error saying I don't have permission to save the file (see attachment). I'm mounting the remote file system with the root account on the remote server: sshfs r...@www.website.com:/var/www/website/htdocs/ /home/lonnie/remote/website/ Also, my username is a member of the "fuse" group. By default, in 9.04, /dev/fuse has read and write permissions, so I'm not having the same issue mentioned earlier regarding 7.04. If I ssh into this same remote server as root, and use nano to edit the file, I have no permission issues. So, since I'm sshfs with root account of the remote server, and since my username is in the fuse group, why am I running into permission problems as I try to update files on the remote mounted file system with gedit? ** Attachment added: "sshfs.png" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/29240220/sshfs.png -- sshfs : : Permission denied https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/123501 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

(OT) Damian: Does newgrp actually work that way for you? It has never worked thus for me, but I wasn't sure at the time of your comment, so I did not reply. I had occasion to use newgrp yesterday, however, so I tried it without logout -- and got the same behavior I always have, which is that it cannot change my group to a group to which I did not belong at login time. -- sshfs : : Permission denied https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/123501 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The user does not need to log out after adding themselves to the fuse group in order to invoke sshfs. Simply type 'newgrp fuse', which will change the user's current group to fuse. Then type 'id' to verify the current group id has been changed as requested. Now, you can try mounting a remote directory over SSH with sshfs. Also, make sure you use 'fusermount -u mounting_point' instead of 'umount'. This avoids unnecessarily logging in as root when unmounting a virtual directory mounted with fuse. To recap: 1. Add yourself to the fuse group by typing gnome-control-center, choosing Users and Groups, double clicking on the user to change in the user listing box, clicking on the User tab, then checking "fuse" Alternatively, you can use groupmems as root, but the groupmems command has been segfaulting for me, and I don't know why. 2. Change your current group id to fuse by typing newgrp fuse 3. Mount the remote directory over SSH using sshfs sshfs [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/remote/directory/to/mount /home/myusername/my-mounting-point 4. Viola! When your done, unmount using: fusermount -u /home/myusername/my-mounting-point Damian -- sshfs : : Permission denied https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/123501 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 123501] Re: sshfs : : Permission denied
I found that in 7.04, simply adding current user to fuse is not enough. the /dev/fuse default owner/group is root:root. So in short, after sshfs was installed, we need to perform the following steps in order to make it work. 1. add user to fuse group. 2. make sure /dev/fuse group belongs to fuse and group has r/w access. (in 7.04, default for /dev/fuse is root:root rw- rw- ---) 3. logout, in order step 1 could take effect. 4. perform sshfs mount I agree with peter that this whole process should be made easier. Or at least point out the extra steps users must perform. -- sshfs : : Permission denied https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/123501 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
RE: [Bug 123501] Re: sshfs : : Permission denied
Today i was playing around with encfs and to get encfs working it was necessary to do a "sudo addgroup user fuse"...and then after a while i found out that i have a connection with sshfs...but i was not knowing why...your answer explains now everything :-) but anyway sshfs shoud work "out off the box". That make things simple for simple users like mine.
