I got ntfs3g running on my fuse setup, and was appalled at how slow the r/w operations were taking.With direct access to Spotify and a native Windows 10 look and feel, djay Pro is the ultimate performance tool to mix music on Windows.” By introducing our app to Windows users for the first time, djay Pro has become a truly universal, cross-platform solution for all DJs. It might make sense to store these preferences on a per drive basis.Michael QFTAGJEmphasis on *significantly slower*. It might make sense to present a dialog when a new disk is connected, asking whether user wants NTFS3G or default.4. If MacFusion "mounts" an NTFS drive, NTFS3G will be used, when MacFusion "unomunts" and NTFS drive, the drive will switch back to the default OSX driver (this is possible).3. Due to (1), it makes sense of MacFusion to offer some sort of choice when it comes to drive mounting. Therefore, one does not always want to use the NTFS3G driver.2. The NTFS3G driver is significantly slower than the built in read capability of OSX (there could be many reasons for this, FUSE being only one). Quote:Originally posted by Michael Gorbach:My current thoughts: 1. ::shrug:: And the other thing is that the ntfs-3g driver is not entirely tried and true yet - do you want those bugs associated with MacFusion at the moment? Better to have someone install them separately rather than together so that you can remove the component thats causing problems while keeping the other component intact. Connecting to a windows share is native to OS X and it's not necessary to include it with MacFusion unless its like a favorite or something. Then use the finder to mount samba or CIFS shares and you'll be able to write to them (assuming you've got the right permissions). Just install the ntfs-3g plugin for macfuse. I don't believe they're interchangeable within the same session (ie you'd have to pick one and either restart service or restart the machine). It's either you use the ntfs-3g driver with write access or you're using the native OS X ntfs read only driver. are there implementations for other file systems like NTFS? If so, how are those handled? I'd imagine something relatively transparent would be nice, given that OS X can *read* NTFS but not write to NTFS, so maybe on recognition of an NTFS drive by OS X, a hand-off can be performed to Fuse. ![]() Any ideas from Arsians are very welcome! Michael That is a good question.

I know Fetch works and works well, but more is always better if it's well implemented.See here. Originally posted by dhaveconfig:Fetch works wonderfully well for GSSAPI, and they give out free licences for a whole bunch of users including edu if you qualify. sshkeychain of which you speak.Oh, and it's dam, Dan is my cousin. YGM.No, I don't use anything like sshkeychain, the only way I've ever logged into SSH before is with a Terminal window so I just type my password at the prompt. In terms of a public key ssh volume, it should work but it needs an ssh-agent like sshkeychain to authenticate the key. please do email me the server credentials and I'll see if I can't track down the issue. ![]() Originally posted by Michael Gorbach:Dan,Sure. The puts up a menubar icon, from which you can "quick mount" or mount any your favorite set up SSH or FTP servers.I posted about a test release a little while ago, and there was some interest on these forums so I hope this might be useful to some of you.Current Features:- Mount SSH and FTP servers on your desktop- Storing of passwords for both SSH and FTP in keychain- Storing favorites and automatically mounting when started- Registers as a URL handler for SFTP:// and FTP://Direct download link: site can be found here: project is open source and the google code repository (svn) islinked from the above site.MacFusion has a plugin architecture so additional file systems areforthcoming (encfs, gmailfs, and more!).Please enjoy! I'm looking forward to hearing any suggestions, featurerequests, bug reports, etc.Michael Gorbach This has been possible for a while with Google's work but I wanted to make it easy to use. What does it do? It allows read/write mounting of SSH and FTP servers on your desktop, as if they were local files. It is a GUI wrapper for Google's FUSE technology. Hello all,I've finished up version 1 of my open source app MacFusion. ![]()
