Mounting a Remote filesystem locally using sshfs

SSHFS allows any user to remotely mount their Shaheen home directory onto a local workstation through an ssh connection.

( mkdir -p ~/ksl &&
 sshfs ${user}@shaheen.hpc.kaust.edu.sa: ~/ksl )

Instructions for using sshfs on Fedora are available at http://fedorasolved.org/server-solutions/sshfs.

SSHFS can be installed on OS X using MacPorts. Alternatively, a binary package is available at http://pqrs.org/macosx/sshfs/.

More information on accessing KSL resources can be found in the user guide : http://www.hpc.kaust.edu.sa/documentation/user_guide/access/.
