SSH editing files on the server.

[valsorym]

Hia all,
I have a remote server (accessed by SSH).
All is well. I connect via SSH run the editors/vim, and I correct all that is needed.
But here's the rub.
For a long time so you can not work. Not convenient.

I would like something like this:
# geany -p PORT [email]root@mysite.com:/usr/local/www/mysite.com[/email]/cgi-bin/index.c
I would like to work in devel/geany on my computer, and while maintaining the record to the server.

Do not know how to do so?

Then I decided to install sysutils/fusefs-sshfs.
Method is not as good as the one I described earlier, but even so....

# mkdir -p ~/sshmnt
# sshfs -C -p PORT root@mysite.com:/usr/local/www/mysite.com/cgi-bin/ ~/sshmnt
fuse: failed to open fuse device: No such file or directory

But the file is there, I just checked the

And as you're struggling with such issues?

Does % kldstat show the fuse module (sysutils/fusefs-kmod) loaded? If not, # /usr/local/etc/rc.d/fusefs start to load it.

 

[valsorym]

Oh, thanks for the idea.
It was all just a little wrong.

# echo 'fusefs_enable="YES"' >> /etc/rc.conf
# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/fusefs start
Starting fusefs. 

# sshfs -C -p PORT root@mysite.com:/usr/local/www/mysite.com/cgi-bin/ ~/sshmnt
... ready!

Thank you very much!

Problems.......

Damn.
Now making

# cd ~/sshmnt
# geany index.c

- All good ... but after I pressed "Ctrl + S" - my computer reboot. x(
The last 10 minutes of recovering a system with fsck.

what? why?
This is just me?

 

[valsorym]

I found a decent solution.
vim [url=scp://root@mysite.com:PORT//usr/local/www/mysite.com/cgi-bin/index.c]scp://root@mysite.com:PORT//usr/local/w ... in/index.c[/url]

I love editors/vim - all is well. One drawback:
1. Each time I save / open file I should enter password - annoying.

But it's better than what edit via console-ssh (not braking when entering characters).

If someone else has other suggestions - I will listen to them. Thank you!

You can authenticate without using a password: http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=1508.

Running the local vi(m) (on mysite.com) is a common way to do things. I'll leave it to the vi(m) users to help you figure out why the characters are messed up.

I've used sshfs from time to time and I don't recall any stability issues.

You can use gjournal() to (almost) eliminate the need for fsck. See also: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/geom-gjournal.html.

Thank you jrm!

vim [url=scp://root@mysite.com:PORT//usr/local/www/mysite.com/cgi-bin/index.c]scp://root@mysite.com:PORT//usr/local/w ... in/index.c[/url]

I would suggest not running as root.

Hi, I had found a workaround to this behavior in geany in a blog. It works for me now:
1. In ~/.config/geany/geany.conf I've changed the value of use_gio_unsafe_file_saving to false and add other parameter not present; in short the two modified parameters are:

use_gio_unsafe_file_saving=false
use_safe_file_saving=true

2. To connect to the server I am using now:

sshfs -o workaround=rename  user@server:/path /path_to/mount_point

And that's it! I can use geany with sshfs now!

cheers
