I played with a few broken gui deals and finally happened to find a great link for making this work (if you use homebrew)

However, I use MacPorts – I’ve been using it for a while on various macs. So…

port install fuse4x

port install sshfs

On my first try I had a fail to build. Looking at the referenced logfile, I had to agree to the xcodebuild license.

sudo xcodebuild -license

Scroll to the end and agree (if you do), then re-run the above commands to get things built.

Then, create a mount point. I made mine in my home directory.

sshfs user@domain.com:/dir mountpoint
