[...] If you don’t have SSH set up currently on the systems you want to access, there’s plenty of information available on the Internet about Linux and SSH. If you’re interested in setting up SSH with keys instead of password login, search for the term “ssh keys” and you’ll come up with plenty of resources demonstrating configurations. [...]

if you have an smp kernel do not forget to download kernel-smp-devel *not* kernel-devel

Many thanks!

Thaaaaaaaaaaaank you. I’m so impressed with every step. Normally howto’s leave you stuck in the middle.

Thank you for this howto, this is perfect for RHEL 5.3 64 bits

It has been pain to find out, but this is the one procedure that works! Downloading the RPMs for fuse and fuse-ssh and installing them do not work (you get the “modprobe fuse” issue which I couldn’t get around)

Getting the latest sources for fuse and fuse-ssh (using sourceforge in my case), as well as creating a couple of symbolic links (especially for the library), and it worked like a charm!

Again, thank you, even though it would have been better for the RPMs to work out of the box from an update point of view.

NOTE: installing the packages via YUM works with Fedora, I am guessing it is dependant on the fact that fuse has been integrated to later kernels than the one used by RHEL.
