Tunnelling via ssh

[Dru Lee Parsec]

Hi folks:

At work we have all our source code and development servers on a computer that is protected via ssh. At home I can access these computers because I have the proper public-private key.

Here's the issue. I need my text editor, Jext, to be able to "see" this directory structure. In other words I want to do something like mapping a directory (Say, /mnt/memphis ) to the computer that I am connected to via ssh. Therefore, the remote computer appears as a local drive. Is this possible?

Thank you for your help.

mmmm, don't think so, try this instead

ssh into machine at work that has files

scp -r /folder/of/files/without/backslash/on/end user@yourmachine:

if your RSA keys are set up right it won't even ask for a password

What would the process be to do this without ssh?

depends what other daemons that server is running. if it has ftp you could just ftp the files to you or there's a ftp file system module on freshmeat which would let you mount an ftp site to your file system. or you could ssh into that computer and ftp them to yours if you run an ftp server
