Title: [Announce] FUSE
Post by: m on November 29, 2008, 10:19:47 PM

Hi all,

I have made a contrib and a Wiki page for easy installation of FUSE on SME Server.

FUSE is a kernel module that allows non-privileged users to run file system drivers in user space. With FUSE virtual files systems can be realized that can export any data source as a filesystem.

Visit the Wiki for further details: http://wiki.contribs.org/FUSE_-_Filesystem_in_Userspace

I hope that this proves useful to somebody. Thank you.
Michael

Hi Michael,

Would you mind telling us what (f)use you found on SME ?   :???:

(NOTE: I do know about/use FUSE based NTFS access, ClamFS, EncFS (& more) but all of them either seemed workstation stuff or tested out to be too slow for serving...)

...take it as a compliment...but...coming from you I have to know  :grin:

Regards
Reinhold

not at all. As you know I am using the SME as a base for dedicated backup servers and I am currently investigating whether using FUSE-ChunkFS for big files could save disk space. The FUSE contrib is just a by-product of this work.

Thanks
...and good luck - pls. let us know if it turns out worth your while
...personally I still lament about the big-ego-guy's kernel rejection and him "killing it all" together with his wife +o(  ...

Dear Micheal,

I have to backup to a remote Debian server over ssh and want to mount that filesystem as a local one via Fuse.
Current SME version is 8.0.
Are you going to make your contrib for SME8.x too?
I found your wiki but am scared to try this on a SME 8 server as there are kernel sources needed.

Hope to hear from you (even if you dont have the time for it).

Greetings Simon
