ok, official bragging time.
i just hacked together a script that automagically mounts and unmounts my 400GB storage drive through sshfs in accordance with my networkmanager setup. in other words, when i pop open my netbook in my dorm room, it connects (using networkmanager) via AES-encrypted (WPA2) to my gentoo desktop. then, behind the scenes, my laptop initiates a connection to my 400GB storage drive through 256-bit AES (SSH2) sftp. i can then work on the files on the drive as if it were a physical drive on my netbook. when i leave my room with the netbook, it disconnects from the access point and automatically unmounts the remote drive. it all happens without any extra interaction. seamless. beautiful. linux.
