#  Using the FUSE in NetBSD -current 

#  Requirements 

You will need a current kernel and userland, and up to date pkgsrc-current (pkgsrc/filesystems) 

#  Introduction 

The sources we refer to in this HowTo can exist anywhere on your system (normally in /usr)   
That's why we use src/foo/bar (i.e src/lib/libpuffs) instead of full path. 

#  Setup 

Make sure that your Kernel configuration file contains the following option under filesystem 
    
      file-system PUFFS  
    

And this under pseudo-devices 
    
      pseudo-device putter
    

Add this to your /etc/mk.conf 
    
      MKPUFFS=yes 
    

Build your kernel and update your userland. 

Make sure you run "make includes" in your source tree in src/sys if you at some point update your NetBSD sources so that you have proper header files.   
Most importantly the src/lib/libpuffs headers. 
    
      # cd src/sys
      # make USETOOLS=no includes 
      # cd src/lib/libpuffs 
      # make USETOOLS=no includes
    

Check if libpuffs is properly installed 
    
      # cd src/lib/libpuffs 
      # make USETOOLS=no cleandir dependall
      # make USETOOLS=no install   
    

Check if librefuse is properly installed. 
    
      # cd src/lib/librefuse 
      # make USETOOLS=no cleandir dependall
      # make USETOOLS=no install
    

Check if fusermount is up to date and installed 
    
      # cd src/usr.sbin/fusermount
      # make USETOOLS=no cleandir dependall
      # make USETOOLS=no cleandir install
    

Check if puffs is up to date and installed 
    
      # cd src/usr.sbin/puffs
      # make USETOOLS=no cleandir dependall
      # make USETOOLS=no install
    
      This will compile and install mount_9p, mount_portal, mount_psshfs and mount_sysctlfs
    

#  Install and Usage 

Mount_psshfs 

Mounting a remote filesystem over ssh 
    
       # mount_psshfs user@host:/path/to/directory /mountpoint 
       # umount /mountpoint 
        
    

Stuff from /usr/pkgsrc/filesystems. 

Fuse-ntfs-3g 

Mounting a ntfs filesystem 
    
       # ntfs-3g /dev/device /mountpoint 
       # umount /mountpoint
    

Fuse-obexftp 

Mounting an obexfs filesystem (Make sure your bluetooth connection is established with your device) 
    
       # obexfs -b 00:11:22:33:44:55 -B 10 /mnt/mountpoint 
    

(Where the 00:11:22:33:44:55 is the address of your Bluetooth device ) 

Fuse-encfs 

Fuse-cryptofs 

Fuse-cddfs 

Fuse-curlftps
