sshfs-automount

If you use an ssh server regularly, you know the struggle of wanting to just check something through a regular file explorer. Of course there are sftp clients like FileZilla, but there's also sshfs, which helps you mount the remote HDD as a local one. Sshfs-automount can be run at system startup and it will notify you about its actions with a popup. It can ping the remote server before trying to automount. There are other bash implementations too, and this one is what works for me.

First time instructions

1. git clone
2. cd into cloned folder
3. cp sshfs-server.cfg ~/.sshfs-server.cfg
4. Edit ~/.sshfs-server.cfg and edit the necessary variables (ssh keys are required)
5. mkdir ~/"localFolder"
6. ./sshfs-automount.sh
