Mounting/unmounting remote file system via sshfs
# on a local linux machine
sudo mkdir -p /mnt/Biowikifarm
# change username
chown yourusername-on-the-biowikifarm /mnt/Biowikifarm/
# mount file the remote system
# 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
# unmount the remote system on your local machine
fusermount -u /mnt/Biowikifarm/
Note that any other user group 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.
