| ==== Mac OS ==== | ==== Mac OS ==== |
| |
| * First install [[http://code.google.com/p/macfuse/|macfuse]] ([[http://code.google.com/p/macfuse/downloads/list|Latest version here]]) | A graphical client for accessing files over ssh called **FileZilla** (Windows and OSX) is available - we have more details on our [[:computing:software:ssh|wiki page about ssh]]. |
| * Then download sshfs for your version of OS X ([[http://macfuse.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/filesystems/sshfs/binary/|Latest version here]]) and save in your Downloads folder | |
| * Open a terminal and do the following to install [[http://code.google.com/p/macfuse/wiki/MACFUSE_FS_SSHFS|sshfs]]: | |
| | |
| mv ~/Downloads/sshfs-static-leopard ~/sshfs #(or replace 'leopard' with whatever your version is) | |
| chmod a+x ~/sshfs | |
| | |
| Then, to make a folder "physics" on your desktop which is connected to AD use the following syntax: | |
| | |
| mkdir -p ~/Desktop/physics | |
| ~/sshfs -o uid=$UID youx500internetID@spa-home.spa.umn.edu:/home ~/Desktop/physics | |
| | |
| The key is -o uid=$UID to map the username from your AD account to your local mac user, without this the files will not be accessible. | |
| | |
| There's also a nicer graphical client for accessing files over ssh called **MacFusion** (from http://macfusionapp.org). To make it work with our server, you'll need to use the "Extra options (Advanced) field to specify your local UID (which is usually 501, but you'll need to check this). Thus, the options field would read something like ''-o uid=501''. | |
