Logging on MacOS?

[Stone Breaker]

MacFUSE (OSxFuse) 4.2.4 + sshFS 2.5.0

I'm trying to work out why sshfs is prompting for a password, when plain ssh for this host does not prompt.  (.ssh/config specifies a key).

Have requested these options:

sshfs -o debug,sshfs_debug,loglevel=debug ...

And I have no idea where the output is going - sshfs emits nothing to the terminal.

Nothing obvious in /var/log...

??

On the password problem (if you're interested):

• Have tested ssh and scp via the key with no problems.
• Checked permissions on ~/.ssh, the key file
• Tried it with ssh-agent + ssh-add
• Using explicit path for the key via IdentityFile=/Users/ian/.ssh/id_ed25519 (and not)
• Mount point is under my user home, have permissions

GNAAHGNAAAHGNAAAAAH!

[1]  Don't try this with sudo (sshfs ...) - that will throw stdout away :(

[2]  sudo was the one asking for the password, not sshfs.

🧘‍♂️

Ommmmmm ...

I’m guessing sudo might also change where sshfs is looking for it’s config too.

Is it all working now?

Yep, all good.

It always puzzles me that software projects - especially open source, community-driven ones, never have a manual section on debugging techniques.

No matter how complex the technology+environment, the reasoning seems to be "the code runs on my machine, so the product is complete".

What?
