====== Problems faced in HTTPFS ====== I am following the exaple given at http://httpfs.sourceforge.net/ and code used is downloaded from http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=171260 What I am trying to do is - mount the //dsl.iso// which is on webserver on directory called //test// (this works fine) - Check the content of directory. It should contain //dsl.iso// (even it works fine) - mount this //test/dsl.iso// somewhere else (this does not work) === problem === I am able to mount but the problem I am facing is that file is mounted as nosuid,nodev, which does not allow further mounting. <code> $ $ ./httpfs http://www.alien.doesntexist.org/dsl.iso ./test $ mount httpfs on /home/pravin/Etherboot/v2/httpfs/test type fuse.httpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,user=pravin) $ sudo losetup /dev/loop0 ./test/dsl.iso ./test/dsl.iso: Permission denied $ sudo mount -o loop,ro ./test/dsl.iso mpoint/ ./test/dsl.iso: Permission denied </code> <code> $ sudo losetup -f /dev/loop0 $ sudo losetup -r /dev/loop0 ./test/dsl.iso ./test/dsl.iso: Permission denied </code> <code> $ sudo losetup -f /dev/loop0 $ lsmod | grep loop loop 23052 0 </code>
