Yes, with podfuk it acts like userfs. http://atrey.karlin.mff.cuni.cz/~pavel/podfuk/podfuk.html. [We do not actually use scp; ssh is just enough: we upload "programs" to the server, dd is required on remote side. Look at mc/vfs/fish.c.] Pavel PS: userfs is dead. Podfuk is trying to be replacement. Improving midnight is the right way. -- I'm really pavel@ucw.cz. Look at http://195.113.31.123/~pavel. Pavel Hi! I'm a .signature virus!
