sshfs called as user succeeds, however called as root fails
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}
This call to sshfs as user works:
sshfs cc@10.185.64.122:/home/cc /home/craig/sshfs/S/cc -o idmap=user,IdentityFile=/home/craig/.ssh/id-lxd,port=22,uid=1000,gid=1000,allow_other
This call to sshfs as root fails:
sudo sshfs cc@10.185.64.122:/home/cc /home/craig/sshfs/S/cc -o idmap=user,IdentityFile=/home/craig/.ssh/id-lxd,port=22,uid=1000,gid=1000,allow_other
The host10.185.64.122 is an unprivileged LXD container, if that makes any difference.
When mounting via /etc/fstab it is called from root, which is why I'd like to know.
Why does this happen?
Version info on the client side:
$ sshfs --version
SSHFS version 2.8
FUSE library version: 2.9.7
fusermount version: 2.9.7
using FUSE kernel interface version 7.19
$ uname -a
Linux ub18 4.18.0-15-generic #16~18.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Thu Feb 7 14:06:04 UTC 2019 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
$ lxd --version
3.11
Additional info:
I ran both calls through strace. The strange thing is that non-sudo version made a call to mount and of course that call failed because mount requires root privileges.
Then the execution of the non-sudo version takes a different branch and makes some calls which apparently work.

Could you provide some addition info on your setup? OS version/release. sshfs version? Are you seeing any errors in the logs? Also, what is the exact fstab entry you're using?
