You want to mount a directory in your Ikeepincloud[https://www.ikoula.com/en/public-cloud] space on your '''dedicated server'''[https://www.ikoula.com/en/dedicated-server] running GNU / Linux.

For this you can use sshfs, utility available on all major GNU / Linux distributions.

==Server preparation==

The preparation of the server[https://www.ikoula.com/en/dedicated-server] consists of the installation of the necessary and the generation of an SSH key which we will deposit on its Ikeepincloud[https://www.ikoula.com/en/public-cloud] space.

[[Installation of SSHFS and its dependencies]]

* Under debian and derivatives :
<syntaxhighlight lang=bash>
apt-get install sshfs
</syntaxhighlight>

*Under CentOS and derivatives (you will need access to the EPEL repositories) :
<syntaxhighlight lang=bash>
yum install fuse-sshfs
</syntaxhighlight>

[[Creation of a local directory]]

We will create a directory on the Server[https://www.ikoula.com/en/dedicated-server] which will serve as a mount point (this operation requires super user rights):
<syntaxhighlight lang=bash>
mkdir /mnt/ikic
</syntaxhighlight>

The directory of your IkeepinCloud space will be available there once all the operations have been carried out.

== SSH key generation ==

You can refer to this article : [https://fr.ikoula.wiki/fr/Cr%C3%A9e_une_cl%C3%A9_SSH Create SSH key]
Once the key has been generated on your Server you have to send it to your IkeepinCloud space this way :


==Server Configuration ==
You can now mount a directory in your IkeepinCloud space directly on a mount point on your Server.
We will test the assembly this way : 
<syntaxhighlight lang=bash>
sshfs XXXXX@XXXXX.frYY.ikeepincloud.com:/répertoire_distant /répertoire_local
</syntaxhighlight>

/ remote_directory: the folder of your IkeepinCloud space that you wish to make available on the Server.

/ local directory: the directory of your Server in which your file will be available once mounted.

XXXXX: represents your IkeepinCloud login.


YY: represents the part of the platform on which you are hosted.


'' * For any account created since 25/01/13, the URLs include the name of the platform on which you are hosted (see delivery email). ''

If all goes well you should have access to your IkeepinCloud directory on the local directory of your choice.


== Installation at Server Startup==

In order to make the automatic mounting of your folder on the Server and this at each restart you must modify your file '' 'fstab' ''.
<syntaxhighlight lang=bash>
nano /etc/fstab
</syntaxhighlight>

In this file you will take care to add a line like this at the end:

<syntaxhighlight lang=bash>
XXXXX@XXXXX.frYY.ikeepincloud.com:/                     /mnt/ikic       fuse.sshfs      _netdev     0       0
</syntaxhighlight>

Once saved using the key combination CTRL + X, validation request press O, you can then try with the following command to test:

<syntaxhighlight lang=bash>
mount -a
</syntaxhighlight>

Check if everything is in order in the directory you have chosen if everything is correct.

'' 'When using a recent operating system with systemd, it is possible to manage the assembly of your Ikeepincloud space via systemd entirely.' ''

To do this we will need to create two files:


'' The first file for editing automation: ''

<syntaxhighlight lang=bash>
nano /etc/systemd/system/mnt-ikic.automount
</syntaxhighlight>
In this file we will set up the necessary for the automatic assembly:
<syntaxhighlight lang=bash>
[Unit]
Description=Automount ikic

[Automount]
Where=/mnt/ikic

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
</syntaxhighlight>

'' The second file for the correct mounting of the remote volume: ''

<syntaxhighlight lang=bash>
nano /etc/systemd/system/mnt-ikic.mount : 
</syntaxhighlight>

'' In this second file we will place this: ''

<syntaxhighlight lang=bash>
[Unit]
Description=Mount file for /mnt/ikic sshfs mount
Requires=network-online.target
After=netctl@eth0.service

[Mount]
What=XXXXX@XXXXX.frYY.ikeepincloud.com:/
Where=/mnt/ikic
Type=fuse.sshfs
Options=_netdev
</syntaxhighlight>

Following these additions we must reload the configuration of the systemd daemon:

<syntaxhighlight lang=bash>
systemctl daemon-reload
</syntaxhighlight>

Then activate the automount service:

<syntaxhighlight lang=bash>
systemctl enable mnt-ikic.automount
</syntaxhighlight>

Here at the next restart the remote directory will be automatically mounted.
