+&lt;p&gt;Just got an email from Tobias Gruetzmacher as a followup on my
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Broken_umask_handling_with_sshfs.html&quot;&gt;previous
+post about sshfs&lt;/a&gt;.  He reported another problem with sshfs.  It
+fail to handle hard links properly.  A simple way to spot this is to
+look at the . and .. entries in the directory tree.  These should have
+a link count &gt;1, but on sshfs the count is 1.  I just tested to see
+what happen when trying to hardlink, and this fail as well:&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;pre&gt;
+% ln foo bar
+ln: creating hard link `bar&#39; =&gt; `foo&#39;: Function not implemented
+%
+&lt;/pre&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;I have not yet found time to implement a test for this in my file
+system test code, but believe having working hard links is useful to
+avoid surprised unix programs.  Not as useful as working file locking
+and symlinks, which are required to get a working desktop, but useful
+nevertheless. :)&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;The latest version of the file system test code is available via
+git from
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://github.com/gebi/fs-test&quot;&gt;http://github.com/gebi/fs-test&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

-&lt;p&gt;A few days ago, I
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Debian_Edu_roaming_workstation___at_the_university_of_Oslo.html&quot;&gt;tried
-to install&lt;/a&gt; a Roaming workation profile from Debian Edu/Squeeze
-while on the university network here at the University of Oslo, and
-noticed how much had to change to get it operational using the
-university infrastructure.  It was fairly easy, but it occured to me
-that Debian Edu would improve a lot if I could get the client to
-connect without any changes at all, and thus let the client configure
-itself during installation and first boot to use the infrastructure
-around it.  Now I am a huge step further along that road.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;With our current squeeze-test packages, I can select the roaming
-workstation profile and get a working laptop connecting to the
-university LDAP server for user and group and our active directory
-servers for Kerberos authentication.  All this without any
-configuration at all during installation.  My users home directory got
-a bookmark in the KDE menu to mount it via SMB, with the correct URL.
-In short, openldap and sssd is correctly configured.  In addition to
-this, the client look for http://wpad/wpad.dat to configure a web
-proxy, and when it fail to find it no proxy settings are stored in
-/etc/environment and /etc/apt/apt.conf.  Iceweasel and KDE is
-configured to look for the same wpad configuration and also do not use
-a proxy when at the university network.  If the machine is moved to a
-network with such wpad setup, it would automatically use it when DHCP
-gave it a IP address.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;The LDAP server is located using DNS, by first looking for the DNS
-entry ldap.$domain.  If this do not exist, it look for the
-_ldap._tcp.$domain SRV records and use the first one as the LDAP
-server.  Next, it connects to the LDAP server and search all
-namingContexts entries for posixAccount or posixGroup objects, and
-pick the first one as the LDAP base.  For Kerberos, a similar
-algorithm is used to locate the LDAP server, and the realm is the
-uppercase version of $domain.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;So, what is not working, you might ask.  SMB mounting my home
-directory do not work.  No idea why, but suspected the incorrect
-Kerberos settings in /etc/krb5.conf and /etc/samba/smb.conf might be
-the cause.  These are not properly configured during installation, and
-had to be hand-edited to get the correct Kerberos realm and server,
-but SMB mounting still do not work. :(&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;With this automatic configuration in place, I expect a Debian Edu
-roaming profile installation would be able to automatically detect and
-connect to any site using LDAP and Kerberos for NSS directory and PAM
-authentication.  It should also work out of the box in a Active
-Directory environment providing posixAccount and posixGroup objects
-with UID and GID values.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;If you want to help out with implementing these things for Debian
-Edu, please contact us on debian-edu@lists.debian.org.&lt;/p&gt;
