backup -backup-dir=_Archives -suffix=.$right_now command extension causes the file to be opened and executed by the Terminal application.) Here’s the contents of that document: #!/bin/sh I used BBEdit to create a file called “Dreamhost mand” (the. It can do archiving of changed or deleted files. It’s easy to specify a particular set of source locations (folders). In order to backup my local files, I chose to use the Unix rsync utility since: I quickly signed up, and for less than $100/year, have 500 GB of offsite backup space! (Nevermind all the hosting options provided, should I ever be interested in that…)
#MACFUSION REDDIT REGISTRATION#
Yesterday Dreamhost announced the registration of their 500,000th domain, and (thanks to a tip from Arto blogged about a special offer: The first 500 people to sign-up for L1 hosting would receive: Using MacFUSE and MacFusion, all staff can then mount the file server(s) “Management” and “Staff” over compressed SSH access, over ISP-level access speeds (instead of our office DSL speeds). So all staff SSH public keys are located on the first server, and all management staff SSH public keys on the second. We allow key-based SSH access to these servers. On one of our internet connected dedicated servers, we run two Xen VMs: one for staff-accessible documents, and one for management-accessible documents. Basically, it allows you to run any number of “virtual” server machines, on a given “real” server. Xen is similar to virtualization technologies like VMWare and Parallels. MacFusion, when launched, creates a new menu item, where you can quickly mount SSH or FTP servers, as well as create and access SSH or FTP server bookmarks, for quick access.
#MACFUSION REDDIT MAC OS X#
MacFusion is the tool that lets you mount SSH and FTP servers as volumes in the Mac OS X Finder, and work with them just as if they were local hard drives.
#MACFUSION REDDIT INSTALL#
Once you’ve installed MacFUSE, you can then install MacFusion. (You do not need anything else from Google, such as sshfs.)
#MACFUSION REDDIT DOWNLOAD#
You don’t need to know much more than that, just download MacFUSE and install it. In English, it’s the fundamental component that opens the door to various things like SSH accessible directories, Flickr directories, and Subversion directories to be mounted just like ordinary volumes (such as hard drives). MacFUSE is a Mac OS X kernal extension that exports the file system API to the user space. The introduction of MacFUSE, MacFusion in combination with open-source Xen virtual machines (VMs) have allowed us a new, more convenient means of working. The lucky people in the Germany office have always mounted the file server on their desktops with standard Mac OS X AppleShare mounting. The office here in Spain has kept a local copy of the file server, mirrored using the Unix rsync utility, and manually updated with our files via SFTP. In the past, the central file server has been located in the Germany office, and those of us outside Germany have accessed it via SFTP (using a client such as Interarchy). File sharing, for us, has always been a challenge. Our company is very distributed - we have offices in Germany, Spain and the US, with a number of employees living in yet other countries like France and Ireland. MacFUSE & MacFusion: Mounting Volumes over SSH
#MACFUSION REDDIT FREE#
MacFusion is free and open source.This is sort of a summary post related to a combination of recent technological advances, combined with older technology, that’s making my networked life a lot more convenient. Of course you'll need to install MacFUSE first, then download MacFusion and install it as a normal application. MacFusion can also do the same for any File Transfer Protocol (FTP) server, giving read/write FTP in the finder for the first time!" It's still early in development but it will already "show a Secure Shell or Secure FTP share from another computer on your macs desktop, letting you manipulate the files on it as if they were on your own computer. That's where MacFusion comes in, as a GUI front-end for MacFUSE that puts easy access to MacFUSE network mounts in your menubar. Unfortunately, however, MacFUSE is a rather geeky project that requires some command line chops to get things going. It's a very cool utility (from Amit Singh at Google) which brings the Linux FUSE project to the Mac for easily expanding file system support (for more background on Singh and MacFUSE check out this interview at IT Conversation). We mentioned MacFUSE many times here on TUAW.
