Re: automount thru winscp

[Stephen Samuel <samuel@bcgreen.com>]

You could placee the following in users'  ~/.bashrc file:

if  [ -n "$SSH_CLIENT" -a  -n '$DID_SSH_INIT" ] ; then
    export DID_SSH_INIT=yes
    engage_automount
fi

This doesn't differeentiate between ssh and scp, but it should be a good 
start.

If you need to do something on exit, you can use
trap 'exiting_ssh' EXIT

Remember, however, that the user may be still logged in beyond this onee 
session
