  • sshfs

    Discontinued A network filesystem client to connect to SSH servers

    • However, my setup relies on me using sshfs to "mount" a remote directory (which houses the media that jellyfin uses). For jellyfin to have access to this directory, it has to run the command under its user (based on sshfs manpages).

    • I have already installed a media server application called Jellyfin, which already has its init script for openRC.
