2008-06-26 17:26:16 Chuck Renner description In hardy heron, a fuse based sshfs mount that is mounted through /etc/fstab does NOT match its corresponding entry in /etc/mtab. I am filing this as a bug, because it breaks a number of standard ubuntu/gnome/debian/linux utilities, including umount and the unmount capability of the "Disk Mounter" applet. For example, this line in /etc/fstab: [Code]sshfs#username@ubuntusshserver:/home/username /home/username/mnt/sshfs/ubuntusshserver/username fuse comment=sshfs,users,exec,nodev,nosuid,rw,nosuid,noauto,uid=1000,gid=1000,allow_other,reconnect,transform_symlinks,port=22,BatchMode=yes 0 0[/Code] results in this line in /etc/mtab (when this mount point is mounted): [Code]username@ubuntusshserver:/home/username /home/username/mnt/sshfs/ubuntusshserver/username fuse.sshfs rw,nosuid,nodev,max_read=65536,allow_other,user=username 0 0[/Code] The line mentioned for /etc/fstab allows me to easily mount the sshfs mount point from mount or the "Disk Mounter" applet with no problems, but breaks umount and "Disk Mounter" for unmounting. "fusermount -u" or "fusermount -u -z" still work. Running the following line to use sed to edit /etc/mtab to correct the problem after a mount results in desired behavior, and verifies that this problem is a bug: [Code]sudo sed 's/\(^[^@]\{1,\}@\)\(.\{1,\}\) fuse\.sshfs /sshfs#\1\2 fuse /' -i /etc/mtab[/Code] This line is, of course, a workaround for the bug, and requires su privileges to run, so it is NOT a solution. The source package for this bug should be sshfs-fuse 1.9-1. The binary package is sshfs. I believe that this behavior did not exist in fiesty fawn, and cannot tell you if it existed in gutsy gibbon. I am almost sure that this is new to hardy heron, so it is probably a design change that resulted in some bugs.
