newbie question: sshfs disconnecting - SOLVED

We're going to need more info than that, see my sig.

I'm not sure what else I can provide. I've tried searching for error logs but all my searching for logs concerning ssh connections. Again I'm trying to do a sshfs mount from a OS X 10.6.4 using MacFusion 2.0.4 the server is Ubuntu 9.04. The only log I can provide is the log from MacFusion this is the complete log from the attempted connection.

Again, I am totally new at this I can provide more if I know what is needed but I don't know.

I think you want to connect to your Linode, rather than to the server it is running on.

Thanks, that was it. I guess I don't quite get the difference between the linode server and the regular server.

Your linode is a virtual server that, along with a bunch of other linodes, is hosted on a physical server. The physical server (and its installed software) is maintained by Linode while the virtual server is fully maintained by you.

For the most part, you can pretty much ignore the existence of the physical server except when you're using Lish.
