Hi there,

I've got a problem about how to map or mount the whole developing environment remotely?

For example,

There is a server A (CentOS) which I have got a normal user name and password but no root control.

And my desktop B (Opensuse) which I've got the root authority.

Normally, when I do some software developing, I use SSH to login to A. All the developing environment are installed on A, e.g. libraries, PATH, makefile, etc.

However, there is a waste of my machine B, because all the test, debugging are performed on A.

I know that sshfs can map a path to local remotely. May I ask if there is a method to map or mount the whole working environment from A to B please?

Any tips would be appreciate! Thanks very much.

It's not a waste if Server A is backed up, personally I prefer to do dev work in a vm so I don't accidentally *fsck* anything on the pc I use every day. The short answer would be 'no' .. you won't get the libraries etc just by mapping a drive, you'd have to muck about with your environment variables, library paths and so on to make it work
