I am trying to see if there is a way to mount my Linux folder through my mac. I am using Mac OS X and using Red Hat 5.5 on my Linux.
My main purpose is to use my files locally on my Linux box on my Mac.
Easiest way : That is, if you already have one Setup on SSH server's Linux box (super easy for setup), use it like SCP client. When connected, make sure to select the SFTP (SSH File Transfer Protocol) and then use the login credentials of your Linux box.
Preferred method : Connect to Linux box and that part from the Mac using the Go -> "Connect to Server" option in the OSX File menu. SBB in the website field: // [Linux box IP] / [share name] /.
Now, none of these methods will work on other networks (from a remote) until you install the Linux box outside the world, a dynamic DNS set up and your router to your own By using something on the port-forwarding lines in the box.
