Mounting remote file system via sshfs

# on a local linux machine
 sudo mkdir -p /mnt/Biowikifarm
 # change username
 chown yourusername-on-the-biowikifarm /mnt/Biowikifarm/
# needs sshfs (ubuntu: apt-get install sshfs)
 sshfs yourusername-on-the-biowikifarm@biowikifarm.net:/ /mnt/Biowikifarm/
# now you can browse and save from within your local computer

Note that any other usergroup on the wiki is not shown on your local computer, but just group ID-numbers. But you can create an identical usergroup on your local machine with the same group ID.

Secure terminal access via ssh

ssh yourusername-on-the-biowikifarm@biowikifarm.net
# ssh yourusername-on-the-biowikifarm@biowikifarm.net:/path/
#...
# now you are logged in on the server
exit # closes this session
