CentOS - Sep 2006 - Anyone using fuse and/or sshfs under Centos 4.4?

Hi 

A search of google failed to show any prebuilt rpms for sshfs and fuse.

I do see that fuse support is in 2.6.14 kernel which isn't a whole lot of
help.

Before I dive headlong into this has anyone successfully built fuse/sshfs
against Centos 4.4.
 
If so would you share your experience?

Thanks

Daveh

I'm using Fuse 2.5.3 with EncFS (not sshfs) on CentOS 4.4. Works fine
and so far without any problems. I'm using fuse/encfs also on CentOS 3
for a long time and even did an (outdated) package for that a long time
ago. I'm still using it directly compiled from Source. Building an RPM
is on my (long) task list.

RedHat and thus CentOS doesn't have fuse in the standard Kernel, as they
are using 2.4.9 with some backports/fixes (but not fuse).

Kind regards

Roland

BTW: Are any CentOS developers/users going to EuroOSCON next week to
Brussels?

Been using fuse/sshfs and fuse/mysqlfs (beta tester) on CentOS 4.4 without
any problems.

Building was pretty straightforward. No real ticks there.

contains my end results plus the build script (rpmmacros included as 
attachment), I haven't yet upgraded to the centos 4.4 kernel as this is a 
major move for me (a couple dozen machines, not all centos, not all 
rpm-managed, not all with HDDs should be running the same version) and I 
simply haven't gotten around to it (I should automate it...).  However, it 
should be relatively simple to do...
