NetBSD has a userspace filesystem api with a FUSE compatibility layer: http://www.netbsd.org/docs/puffs/ http://www.netbsd.org/docs/puffs/ FreeBSD has had some work porting FUSE. I'm not sure the status I just remember seeing it as a GSoC project. Some people are working on FUSE for OpenBSD. The GPL license of libfuse seems to be a problem but the kernel side stuff is implemented: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.openbsd.tech/31704 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.openbsd.tech/31704

A couple of years ago I used to use sshfs quite extensively in FreeBSD and that worked fine. The only problem was the FUSE required root permissions to mount (unlike Linux). But aside that, it worked fine. Hopefully they've since addressed the user mounting issue. I've not used it recently to check.

  Fuse requires root permissions in Linux. Most distributions simple make the fusermount binary setuid.

    So it does: $ ls -l `which fusermount` -rwsr-xr-x 1 root root 31384 May 31 04:38 /usr/bin/fusermount You learn something new everyday. Thanks for the correction :)
