Today I'm searching for a way to mount a remote directory on my local machine, such that it acts like a local machine. The sole reason is to run the remotely compiled code locally. I've found a nice article on it and would like to blog it here. Here we go: Install SSHFS: sudo apt-get install sshfs Add root to the fuse group:  sudo adduser root fuse  Create the local backup director mkdir backup Then mount the remote /home directory to backup : sshfs -o idmap=user <username>@<remote system's ip>:/home backup Let's check if the remote directory got mounted to /backup : mount df -h To unmount the directory fusermount -u backup Check the backup folder to see your remote directory...

Sometimes we would like to save the output from console into a file and to do this we use some stream writer/reader to read from console and write to a file. But this can be done in much easier way as follows. Add the following code at the beginning of the program: PrintStream out = new PrintStream(new FileOutputStream("output.txt")); System.setOut(out); Now the default behaviour of out is changed to PrintStream out , and the output is redirected to the file provided above. Edit: To reset the standard behaviour, add the following code System.setOut(stdout);
