Can FUSE detect "chdir"?

[Karan Chaudhary]

Hi,

This is regarding Go implementation of FUSE.

What I'm trying to do is make an ssh connection to a machine when a 

user "cd"s into a directory which represents a virtual machine in a cloud,

using FUSE.

For example if "a/b/c" is a directory mounted via FUSE and if the user 

does "cd a/b/c",  the user drops down into remote machine c via ssh.

My question is if it is possible for FUSE to detect "chdir"?

Thanks,

Karan

chdir is not in any way different from any other open of the directory.

But I don't see how a FUSE server could(/should) cause the user session to trigger an SSH session, either. Unless you mean just making files from a remote host visible at a certain directory? That exists, without the dynamic parts, as sshfs (not in Go, at this time).
