There are quite a few steps that you’ll have to follow, so get ready and open a terminal window.

First we’ll install the module:

Now we will use the modprobe command to load it

We’ll need to set up some permissions in order to access the utilities. Replace with your username.

Since we’ve added ourselves to a user group, we need to logout and back in at this point before we continue.

sudo chown root:fuse /dev/fuse

sudo chmod +x /dev/fusermount

Now we’ll create a directory to mount the remote folder in. I chose to create it in my home directory and call it remoteserv.

Now we have the command to actually mount it. You’ll be prompted to save the server key and for your remote password.

Now you should be able to cd into the directory and start using it as if it was local.
