sftpcloudfs(8) SFTP interface to Rackspace Cloud Files and OpenStack Object Storage

SYNOPSIS

sftpcloudfs [OPTIONS]

DESCRIPTION

sftpcloudfs

SFTPCloudFS is an SFTP (Secure File Transfer Protocol) interface to Rackspace Cloud Files and OpenStack Object Storage, providing a service that acts as a proxy between a SFTP client and a remote files/storage service.

The username/password pair used to open the SFTP session is validated using the authentication service of the files/storage service to get an authentication token.

The communication between the client and the SFTP daemon is encrypted all the time, and the SFTP service supports HTTPS communication with the remote files/storage service.
