Hi Michael,

I suddenly thought I should also check the old version on Core 153, so I did that and the same thing happens. The fuse module is not loaded automatically when sshfs command is run, but the error message is very helpful.

"fuse: device not found, try 'modprobe fuse' first"

So the new sshfs version operates the same as the old one, so I am no longer so worried about this.


Regards,

Adolf
