Then to mount the remote drive you need to make a local empty directory - I call mine sc and it's located in my home directory. Now we can install sshfs with: brew install sshfs So first, we install these dependencies with: brew install osxfuse The difference here is that MacOS doesn't come with sshfs installed, and sshfs also requires some dependencies that also aren't included in MacOS. The steps are nearly the same as the ones for Linux/Ubuntu. Voila! When you use your file explorer or terminal to open sc you'll see the remote drive mounted. To set it up you run the command: sshfs -o follow_symlinks ~/sc
I have mine in my home directory and have named it sc. To use it, you will need an empty directory. If your version of Ubuntu doesn't have it, you can install it with sudo apt install sshfs I'm not sure about previous versions, but Ubuntu 20.04 came with sshfs. Basically it mounts the remote file system as a local drive, allowing you to either view the remote files or transfer files between your local runtime and the remote host - much easier and more intuitive than scp (though scp is a useful skill to know). It's a piece of cake to set up and I've found it to be extremely flexible. X-forwarding can be fine if you're browsing through small directories, but can become completely unusable if the directory you're working in has large amounts of data. On both systems I found that using the -X flag with ssh and then eog works, but is a bit slow and clunky. I've tried a few of the methods listed by other answers on this page, and I've tried them on both Ubuntu 20 and MacOS Mojave (my machine is a dual-booted abomination).
