Hi, On a fully up-to-date SL 4.7 system trying to mount a remote filesystem with fuse-sshfs give the error: fuse: unknown option `max_write=65536' and the mount fails. I've found one reference to this message online: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.file-systems.fuse.sshfs/785 which shows the same failure with fuse-sshfs 2.x and fuse 2.5.3, and the suggested solution was upgrading fuse. The recent Fedora packages don't work on SL 4; they rebuild cleanly, but depend on kernel >= 2.6.14 (i.e one with the fuse module built in). I've also tried rolling back to the fuse-sshfs-1.9-2.SL package from SL 4.6 and that (not surprisingly) works fine. Ewan
