Mounting and FTPing with SSH
Computer A is my firewall/server. Computer B is my main computer. I can access Computer A from Computer B by using SSH in a manner similar to telnet. What do I need to do to have FTP access to the files in Computer A? How do I mount a partition on Computer A from Computer B? -- Jason Hsu jhsu802...@jasonhsu.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

In addition to Andrei's suggestions, 'mc' (as well as konqueror through its virtual filesystem support, and whatever GNOME's file mangler is these days provided the right deps are installed) offers virtual filesystem access to remote hosts over ssh. Utilize your existing ssh-agent for transparent access. I usually use lftp's fish protocol myself: lftp fish://remotehost Interactive ftp-like client. Very useful. Supports multiple protocols, including, oddly enough, ftp. For truly transparent access, look to FUSE and sshfs: http://fuse.sourceforge.net/sshfs.html -- Dr. Ed Morbius, Chief Scientist /| Robot Wrangler / Staff Psychologist| When you seek unlimited power Krell Power Systems Unlimited| Go to Krell! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Thus, I suggest samba or nfs would be more appropriate to fulfill the OPs needs. If he has any Windows clients on his LAN samba would be preferred. -- Stan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
