One of my absolutely favorite Linux utilities is "sshfs", that allows you to mount other machine's file systems locally over ssh. I use it everywhere, between Linux machines, Chromebooks, and even sometimes Windows boxes. Absolutely brilliant and incredibly easy to setup and use compared with various other file system sharing models.

I've been using *nix systems for 40 years, and I'd never heard of this capability prior to your post.

Thank you for making me aware of it!

@jrredho My pleasure. I've been using these systems even longer, and I still stumble across useful stuff I somehow missed along the way ...

To keep others from having to figure out which repo package they'll need to install, I found this in fuse-sshfs on my #fedora f39 system.

Cheers!

@jrredho It's usually in most of the standard repos as far as I know.

It wasn't in mine. :)

@jrredho Unfortunate. It really should be standard by now.
