Yeah, but IIRC that fish plugin does not have the full functionality of a mounted fs. Is it accessible (from the command line) with cp? I don't know a way of creating a symlinked copy in konqueror. Alternatively, you could just mount it from the command line with sshfs u...@machine:/path/to/dir /path/to/local/mount-point and then cp -rs /path/to/local/mount-point /path/to/symlink/copy You have to add yourself to the 'fuse' group first (and install sshfs, of course ;-) ).
