I don’t have sufficient privileges? Finder, you’re crazy. I create a small test file called “suckage.txt” and try to copy it to the sshfs mount:Īttempting this copy operation results in this error dialog: There, we can write to this remote filesystem just fine–this is great! But, this was all from the shell, what about from the Finder? Ahh, this is where things start to suck hard. ĭrwxrwxrwx 1 root wheel 0 Sep 13 18:23 echo "This is a test." > cat test.txt Lets make sure we can write to cd ls -laĭrwxrwxrwx 1 root wheel 4096 Sep 13 20:40. I’m mounting the subdirectory /share on foobar to my local mountpoint named “x” as a Mac volume named “x”. Nothing surprising: this just works as you’d expect. I start out by using sshfs to mount the remote sshfs foobar:/share x -o volname=x In general, this works great you only need SSH access to the remote host–not SMB, CIFS, or any other standard, but perhaps firewalled, network file sharing protocol.īut, what if the remote filesystem you want to mount is actually a mounted SMB share? You would think it should “just work,” right? It kind of does, sorta. In short, the idea is you use ssh/sftp to connect to a remote system and “mount” its filesystem (using the SSH connection) so that it appears as a mounted volume on your local machine. Thankfully, it’s trivial to install from source.One of the things I’m trying to do is mount remote filesystems on my Mac using MacFUSE and sshfs. Since Homebrew has deprecated MacFuse, the recipe for installing sshfs also does not work. Restart your Mac one last time, to allow the kernel extension to load on boot. Open “System Preferences » Security & Privacy”:.At the end of installation, you should be prompted to enable the kernel extension: Reboot into macOS, under the “Apple” Menu.įollow the normal installation process.Open “Security Policy…” for the startup disk: Select “Startup Security Utility” from Utilities menu: Hold Power/Touch-ID to launch Startup Options. Enable System Extensions (Kernel Extensions)įor this, you will need to reboot into macOS Recovery Mode. Once you have the installer, you can start with the MacFuse installer first, however, if you are starting from scratch, I believe the following order should avoid extra multiple reboots, and possible removal and re-installation of MacFuse. If anyone says otherwise, they are wrong. Also, since MacFuse is properly signed, you do NOT need to disable SIP (System Integrity Protection). This is because Rosetta 2 will not perform it’s translation magic for kernel extensions, and therefore you need the Apple Silicon version. You will need MacFuse of at least version 4 on M1 Macs. Also, because MacFuse is a kernel extension, Apple will require you to explicitly enable the use of kernel extensions, since they can pose a large security threat. Installing MacFuseĮven if you are used to using Homebrew () or MacPorts (), I suggest fetching the installer directly from. This is simply the latest iteration with MacFUSE (4.2.4) on macOS Monterey (12.2.1) on an Apple M1 (Max) chipset, plus a bit on using it with sshfs. It seems that each time Apple releases a new OS version, there are challenges in getting MacFuse installed. MacFUSE, a FUSE module for macOS, has been around in various forms for quite some time.
