After lots of searching, I was still dumbfounded, until I had a flash of inspiration. I added my user to the readproc group, and voila, my problem went away after logging out and logging in to refresh my groups. Is there a better solution? It seems counterintuitive that I should have to be in the readproc group just to use sshfs. -- Chris --- Unsubscribe: alpine-devel+unsubscribe@lists.alpinelinux.org Help: alpine-devel+help@lists.alpinelinux.org ---
