Re: Mapping Shared IFS folders to Mac

Jon,

I know... but maybe this helps:

https://code.google.com/archive/p/sshfs-gui/

SSHFS GUI

And this is a Youtube Video with a step-by-step installation/usage guide:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7pIDv1EiKtE

The nice thing about SSHFS is the "SSH" part . You can publish SSH port on Intenet (with some care, like changing default port and using chroot) and all traffic will be encrypted.

Good luck

Regards

Tha sk but most of that is just gibberish to me.

I'll try and make sense of it when I get 5.

I'm reluctant to spend too long on it as everything I've tried so far that was supposed to be simple and "just work" hasn't turned out that way.

Jon,

I use SSHFS almost daily on Linux. You need to start *SSHD on IBM i and just map the IFS path you need. According to documentation on this tool (I'm not a MAC friend), you can just do something like this:

sshfs user@host:/dir /mnt/ssh -ocache=no -onolocalcaches -ovolname=ssh

dir=Remote path
/mnt/ssh=Mount point

And that's all you need to do. Good luck

Regards

I have downloaded and installed it Diego - but I don't see how it helps. How am I supposed to use it?

Sorry, I missed part of this thread, but have you tried with SSHFS?

Thanks Bryan - I did eventually get the tools compiled and running.

Sadly it doesn't help.

1. Netserver is running

2. Share has the name and permissions I gave it

3. Any* connection attempt still fails.

* If I include the user name/pw in the connection string it connects and adds the share finder. Clicking on the entry in finder shows the "Connect As" icon in the file list. Clicking on that causes the share to disappear from finder. If I only provide the connection string without the Pw and user then it prompts me for the user Id and pw and then complains about URLs of type smb: are not supported. which is where we came in!

Jon, There are QZLS* api's. IBM provides a GO NETS menu that is in QUSRTOOL.

Is there a command to show what shares are active on the system?
