defer_auth (solution to sshfs + afs - permissions error)

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Attempt to mount a volume over sshfs, where the remote machine's
permissions are handled via AFS access control lists.  (This part succeeds
fine)
2. Try to create a folder or new file

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Ordinarily, with the linux version and connecting to a box that uses the
plain old unix permissions, all goes as it should with read and write
access.  With connecting over MacFusion (and the sshfs version on the
macFuse site), I get permission denied trying to create files.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

MacOS X 10.4.10, MacFuse 0.4.0, MacFusion 1.2 Beta 2

Please provide any additional information below.

I scoured the internet pretty hard for info on this, and didn't come back
with much.  I saw some suggestion using -o workaround=rename, but that
didn't help either.  

Despite all the problems, I can edit files that I've created on the server,
and save them without difficulty.

I'll be happy to provide any other info on request, and help out in any way
I can.
