  1. How to Mount Remote Filesystem or Directory in Linux

  2. Install SSHFS Client in Linux First of all, open terminal and run the following command to install SSHFS on your local client system. # yum install sshfs # dnf install sshfs [On Fedora 22+ releases] $ sudo apt-get install sshfs [On Debian/Ubuntu based systems]

  3. Create Mount Directory Once SSHFS is installed, create a mount directory with the following command. # mkdir /mnt/test [RHEL/CentOS/Fedora] $ sudo mkdir /mnt/test [On Debian/Ubuntu based systems]

  4. Mount Remote Filesystem Mount the remote directory /home/test at local mount point /mnt/test. # sshfs user_name@x.x.x.x:/home/test/ /mnt/test [RHEL/CentOS/Fedora] $ sudo sshfs -o allow_other user_name@x.x.x.x:/home/test/ /mnt/test [Ubuntu/Debian] If you are using key-based authentication use following commands # sshfs -o IdentityFile=~/.ssh/id_rsa test@x.x.x.x:/home/test/ /mnt/test [RHEL/CentOS/Fedora] $ sudo sshfs -o allow_other,IdentityFile=~/.ssh/id_rsa tecmint@x.x.x.x:/home/test/ /mnt/test [Ubuntu/Debian]

  5. Verify Remote Filesystem Once the remote filesystem is mounted you can access its contents as if it were a local folder /mnt/test. # cd /mnt/tecmint # ls

  6. Mount Remote Filesystem Permanently If you want to permanently mount a remote filesystem, you need to make the following changes to /etc/fstab file. Open it in a text editor with the following command. # vi /etc/fstab [RHEL/CentOS/Fedora] $ sudo vi /etc/fstab [On Debian/Ubuntu based systems] Add the following line to the bottom of the file. sshfs#user_name@x.x.x.x:/home/test/ /mnt/test fuse.sshfs defaults 0 0 # mount -a [RHEL/CentOS/Fedora] $ sudo mount -a [On Debian/Ubuntu based systems]
