Mount a remote server with a proxy

I'm trying to mount a remote directory From a server B on my local machine. The connection to server B is possible only from a server A ( I can connect to using ssh ). It's like making the server A as a proxy for the server B. So i'm asking if there is a way to do this ? Thanks.

Solution

  • You can use a Proxy Jump. For that you can add server B in your local machine's ssh config file:

    Host ServerB
    HostName serverb.adress
    User usernameInServerB
    ProxyJump server.a.adress

    Then you can just use any usual ssh command on ServerB, for example:

     ssh ServerB
 or
 sshfs ServerB:Path/To/Dir
