[Bug 123501] Re: sshfs : : Permission denied

I'm using sshfs with Ubuntu 9.04 64 bit.

I'm successfully mounting the remote file system, but when I try to
update a file on the mounted remote file system (with gedit), I get the
attached permissions error saying I don't have permission to save the
file (see attachment).

I'm mounting the remote file system with the root account on the remote server:
sshfs root at www.website.com:/var/www/website/htdocs/ /home/lonnie/remote/website/

Also, my username is a member of the "fuse" group.

By default, in 9.04, /dev/fuse has read and write permissions, so I'm
not having the same issue mentioned earlier regarding 7.04.

If I ssh into this same remote server as root, and use nano to edit the
file, I have no permission issues.

So, since I'm sshfs with root account of the remote server, and since my
username is in the fuse group, why am I running into permission problems
as I try to update files on the remote mounted file system with gedit?
