I have a domain hoster that provides access via SSH.
My platforms are:
Gentoo 2.6.36-r5
Windows (XP/Vista/7)
I work on my Windows, I use Gentoo to do all the magic Windows can't do.
Therefore I use sshfs to mount the remote public directory for my domain to /mnt/mydomain.com. Authentication is done via keys, so lazy me don't have to type in my password every now and then.
Since I do my coding on Windows, and I don't want to upload/download the changed files all the time, I want to access this /mnt/mydomain.com via a samba share.
So I shared /mnt in samba, all mounts except mydomain.com is listed on my Windows Explorer.
My theories are:
sshfs does not set the mountpoint uid/gid to something that samba expects
samba does not know that it has to include the uid/gid that /mnt/mydomain.com has been set.
All above is wrong, and I don't know.
Here are configs and output from console, need anything else just let me know. Also no errors or warnings that I take notice of being relevant to this issue, but I might be wrong.
gentoo ~ # ls -lah /mnt
