[TriLUG] Access to remote linux files and folders...

[dsandif]

Thanks to all who responded. This Fish app is great. Unfoutunatelly, I 
still ran into the same problem. I must apologize for leaving out some 
additional information here.

The kernel version of the machine that I am having problems with is 
2.6.9-42.0.3.EL smp #1 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64. When I bootup and login to 
the computer, directories\folders from other various linux computers are 
mounted In a directory call (for example) “Resinfo”. So from my 
computer, if I CD into Resinfo, I should be able to see a list of all 
the other computers with their mounted “Resinfo” folder\directory, so 
for example, if I have linux boxes apples, oranges, banana, and berries, 
I can be sitting at berries, ssh into apples, CD to apples “Resinfo” 
directory\folder do an ls and see its files and mounted 
folders\directories of oranges and banana. In this case, when I ssh from 
berries to apples, CD to apple’s Resinfo” folder\directory and do a 
ls…….I get nothing, just the [user at apples]# prompt, no list of files or 
directories or folders.

hope this helps & thanks.
