mounting

sshfs [user@]host:[dir] mountpoint [options]

unmounting

mountpoint

general options:

-o opt,[opt...]

mount options

-h --help

print help

-V --version

print version

SSHFS options:

-p PORT

equivalent to '-o port=PORT'

-C

equivalent to '-o compression=yes'

-F ssh_configfile

specifies alternative ssh configuration file

-1

equivalent to '-o ssh_protocol=1'

-o reconnect

reconnect to server

delay connection to server

-o sshfs_sync

synchronous writes

-o no_readahead

synchronous reads (no speculative readahead)

-o sync_readdir

synchronous readdir

-o sshfs_debug

print some debugging information

-o cache=BOOL

enable caching {yes,no} (default: yes)

-o cache_timeout=N

sets timeout for caches in seconds (default: 20)

-o cache_X_timeout=N

sets timeout for {stat,dir,link} cache

-o workaround=LIST

colon separated list of workarounds

-o idmap=TYPE

user/group ID mapping (default: "none")

-o uidfile=FILE
