I am trying to use fuse and sshfs to mount a drive. The command I use to do this is

sudo sshfs computer2@24.97.20.3:/Volumes/1TB\ Extra/MoodleMount /mnt/CampusServer -o allow_other,uid=33,gid=33

It mounts fine every time. No password needed because the ssh keygen is saved on the server. This is my fstab file.

/dev/xvda      /             ext3     defaults,errors=remount-ro,barrier=0 1 1
sshfs#computer2@24.97.20.3:/Volumes/1TB\040Extra/MoodleMount /mnt/CampusServer allow_other,uid=33,gid=33

I took out the -o because it was giving me more problems. After I added the second line to the fstab file I get the following error when running "mount -a"

mount: unknown filesystem type 'gid=33'

Any suggestions on what I am doing wrong?

Answer 1

You've neglected to include the file system type in the fstab line. You should use

sshfs#computer2@24.97.20.3:/Volumes/1TB\040Extra/MoodleMount /mnt/CampusServer fuse.sshfs allow_other,uid=33,gid=33
