Operating Systems Solaris Alternative to sshfs? Post 302509012 by cjcox on Tuesday 29th of March 2011 03:20:23 PM

There's not panacea solution here IMHO. And in fact, my guess is the same reason why NFS mounting is no longer a solution, would actually affect your ability to use sshfs long term for (maybe) the same reasons.

There are other types of remote filesystems... not sure if those are options or not (e.g. AFS, CIFS).

Another possibility would be a Linux proxy that they might allow to do the mount locally and then the remote uses sshfs through it?? But I still fear the issues that made doing the NFS mount not feasible.

The other alternative (as you kind of implied) is to rewrite... the rewrite would likely be portable enough to replace both views though, so no need to maintain two code bases (IMHO).

Forward looking, openSolaris FUSE work has been picked up again by Oracle and promised in Solaris... so possible that Solaris 11 has FUSE and thus sshfs as well.

NAME
fuseiso - FUSE module to mount ISO filesystem images SYNOPSIS
fuseiso [options] <ISO image> <mount point> [FUSE library options] DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the fuseiso command. fuseiso provides a module to mount ISO filesystem images using FUSE. With FUSE it is possible to implement a fully functional filesystem in a userspace program. fuseiso can read ISO, BIN and NRG images containing ISO9660 filesystems. Along with it, it supports some common extensions, like Joliet, RockRidge and zisofs. It also supports non-standard images, like CloneCD's IMGs and Alcohol 120%'s MDFs, as their format looks exactly like BIN images. One major limitation of BIN images is that fuseiso does not handle CUE files in any way, and thus can only work with the first track of those images. Other formats like CCD and MDS are not supported, since their format is not public and no one knows it. OPTIONS
-n Do not maintain ~/.mtab.fuseiso. -p Maintain mount point, create it if it doesn't exist and delete it on exit. -c iocharset Specify iocharset for Joliet filesystems. -h Prints an help screen. Common FUSE library options -f Run in foreground, do not daemonize. -d Run in foreground and print debug information. -s Run single-threaded. SEE ALSO
