I really like sshfs. SSHFS allows you to mount a remote file system and display it as a local mount point on the local system.
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHFS
A simple example is: 1. From the client, make sure you have sshfs installed: "sudo apt-get install sshfs" 2. From the client system: "sudo sshfs user @ubuntuServer: / remote / path / local / path -o allow_other"
This will be the installation / remote / path on the ubuntu server in / local / path on your computer. "-o allow_other" says that any user on the client system reads / writes the mount point, assuming that the user "user @" has permissions on the ubuntu server to read / write to "/ remote / path".
