[Nix-dev] systemd + sshfs

[Rickard Nilsson]

Hi Bjørn,

I remember struggling with this too. The following works for me:

fileSystems."/target" =
   fsType = "fuse";
   device = "${pkgs.sshfsFuse}/bin/sshfs#user at host:/path";
   options = [
     "noauto" "comment=systemd.automount"
     "ssh_command=${sshAsUser}"
   ];
};

where

   sshAsUser = user:
     writeScript "ssh_as_${user}" ''
       exec ${pkgs.sudo}/bin/sudo -i -u ${user} \
         ${pkgs.openssh}/bin/ssh $@
     '';

The "sshAsUser" command makes systemd use my gpg-agent session correctly 
when auto-mounting. But I guess you could use it to set any ssh options 
you'd like.
