Problems unmounting a sshfs

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. mount a sshfs either with sshfs or sshfs-static
2. attempt to unmount the fs/volume using Finder
3. attempt to unmount the fs/volume using cl umount

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect to not see the unmounted fs/volume in Finder, but it remains.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
MacFUSE-Core-0.1.9
sshfs-0.1.0 (from here)
sshfs-fuse-1.7
PowerBook G4 (PPC)
MacOSX 10.4.8

Please provide any additional information below.

I finally have MacFuse and sshfs working nicely (very cool) but am having 
trouble unmounting 
volumes. I am completely unable to unmount a volume using any Finder method. I 
am able to 
unmount a sshfs/volume is terminal using umount, but the volume remains in 
Finder (with no 
contents). The only way I seem to be able to get Finder to realize the volume 
has been 
unmounted is to log out and back in again.

FYI... I have been mounting the sshfs to a mount point in my user dir. Would I 
(or should I) have 
better luck if I mounted the sshfs to a mount point in /Volumes ?

Thanks,

Are you using the 'ping_diskarb' option? Looks like you are not. Without this, 
you won't get Finder handshaking 
with sshfs. Something like this:

sshfs user@host:/remotedir /tmp/ssh -oping_diskarb

Thanks asingh,

I just found that tidbit too, and yes, that was the problem. This is the string 
I am using now...

sshfs user@server.com:/ localmount -p 1234 -ovolname=volname -oping_diskarb
