10.6: Mount remote Linux sshfs disks in 64-bit 10.6

This tip is partially wrong.

You don't need to have fuse installed on the linux server. As long as you have sshd running on the server, and you can scp to the linux box from the Mac, then there is no additional work needed on the server side.

To test, from the Mac in Terminal: scp somelocalfile username@linuxserver:~
If the file is successfully copied to the linux server, then you are good to go with installing fuse/sshfs on the Mac.

If the above fails, it's likely that sshd is not running. Enabling it varies from distribution to distribution.
