Hi,

Up til now, I've only used MacFusion with sshfs for accessing mmc1, mmc2 and /home/user. I dropped the DSA public key from my Mac into /home/user/.ssh/authorized_keys to get round the lack of a password for user account.

I've had three mount points set up in MacFusion:
mmc1@n800
mmc2@n800
user@n800

I just added a new one for:
rootfs@n800
This uses the root password for logging in, but I suppose I could throw the same public key into /root/.ssh/authorized_keys too. I prefer to do root level stuff in the terminal though, so that's why I've not bothered before. However, disabling root SSH logins with password authentication on the N8x0 is probably a good idea from a security standpoint, so I may do this.

This seems to work nicely for me. I had this stuff running under Tiger, and now Leopard.

Hope this helps.
