shfs Linux Kernel Module

April 23rd 2005 Posted to Linux, Open source, Software, UNIX

Shfs is a simple and easy to use Linux kernel module which allows you to mount remote filesystems using a plain shell (ssh) connection. When using shfs, you can access all remote files just like the local ones, only the access is governed through the transport security of ssh.

Update - 2006-12-21: These days I use FUSE/sshfs, which does the same thing, and does it in userspace.
