mounting remote network drive using sshfs

1.4k views Asked by At

I am using win-sshfs to mount a remote drive from a Debian Linux server on a windows 7 64-bit desktop machine over the internet. The drive works but it is slow. I want to speed up win-sshfs by disabling compression and encryption. How can I do this? Otherwise is there a faster alternative?

i would suggest installing samba on your debian server or maybe a ftp server for large file transfers.

FTP is unencrypted and you can set different compression options, windows can map a ftp:// share in explorer without any tools
