You probably don't know what samba is. This doesn't matter. ALl you need to know is - THIS IS COOL.

install these on your windows or Linux PC. These are prebuilt installer and all you need to do it double click.

sshfs-win: https://github.com/billziss-gh/sshfs-win  
Requires WinFsp (https://github.com/billziss-gh/winfsp/releases/latest ) 
# to be installed with Cygwin FUSE support ticked in the installer.

Now open Windows Explorer and go to “This PC”. From the ribbon click “Map Network Drive”. Map this to a letter of your choice, e.g. k for kennedy Enter:

\\sshfs.k\you@kennedy10

Large file transfers, please use filezilla, I dont know how stable this is!!!!!!!!

Mount the scratch, you still have to navigate to it, like so:

\\sshfs.k\USERNAME@kennedy10/../../scratch/bioinf/USERNAME

To map the scratch see the next slide.
