Mounted MacFusion volumes do not appear in the Finder sidebar #278

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
When a volume is mounted through MacFusion, its icon will appear on the
desktop, and it can be seen in the Finder by going to the 'Computer' (⇧⌘C
in Finder). However, it does not appear under 'DEVICES' in the Finder
sidebar, nor in this place in Open/Save dialogues.

See attached screenshot for an example, with a mounted SSHFS volume
'artie@susu'.

I've only tried this with SSHFS volumes, but I have tried this several
times with different servers - there is no variation.

I am using MacFusion 1.2b3, which is apparently the latest version, on
Leopard (10.5.3).

I've since realised that this isn't exclusive to MacFusion. The Finder also 
fails to display mounted AFP, SMB and 
NFS shares in the side bar in Leopard. So this is probably a 'feature' of 
Leopard.

I have Snow Leopard and my sshfs mount was not showing up in the sidebar of 
Finder.  I performed the following and now it shows up when mounted:

1.  Finder -> Preferences
2.  Sidebar
    a.  Check the System Device so it shows up on the Sidebar
3.  Mount the sshfs volume in MacFusion
3.  Finder Window
    a.  Open the System Device
    b.  Drag the sshfs volume into the sidebar

Now whenever it's mounted, it shows up in Finder.  Hope that helps someone.

if you mount manually with sshfs, add the "-o local" option.  I believe 
MacFusion has a box to let you specify these options.

ssh -o other_users remoteuser@remoteserver:/remote/path /localpath/to/mount    
then it will change (fuse) the /loca/path/to/mount folder name of the folder 
to: osxfuse... then you can drag that folder to the side bar and it will show 
up in there from then on if its checked in the options in finder preferences.

This is working in Mountain Lion (GRRRRR!)

The 'other_users' option is required when the remote user does not match the 
local user.
