im trying to make a menu icon to automate mounting of a ssh fs.
i made my .desktop file and its all working to the point that i cant enter the password automagically :(

heres my .desktop file

[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Version=0.1
Type=Application
Name=sshfs
Exec=sshfs user@someip:passwd /home/user/somefolder
Icon=qgn_list_gene_default_app
MimeType=application/x-executable


how do i do this?

I thought the sshfs needed the 'fuse' driver, and that it wasn't available for the N800 just yet? Or are you on a 770?
In any case, why don't you just set up RSA authentication so that you won't have to use a password.
