Yes. Tahoe-LAFS comes with an [SFTP server]source:git/docs/frontends/FTP-and-SFTP.rst. If you point [sshfs](http://fuse.sourceforge.net/sshfs.html) at the SFTP server then you have access to Tahoe-LAFS through FUSE. Alternately, [pyfilesystem](pyFilesystem) interfaces directly with Tahoe-LAFS through the latter's [WAPI]source:git/docs/frontends/webapi.rst and provides both FUSE and Microsoft Windows filesystem access. See #1353 for discussion of possible improvements to FUSE integration. Yes. Tahoe-LAFS comes with an [SFTP server]source:git/docs/frontends/FTP-and-SFTP.rst.

There could be performance problems with the FUSE interface if the apps that are using the filesystem use it in a way that doesn't fit Tahoe-LAFS's semantics, and the FUSE layer is required to make many copies of entire files in order to simulate the desired semantics. See [Zooko's post to freedombox-discuss](http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/freedombox-discuss/2011-November/003162.html) and [Zooko's post to Google+](https://plus.google.com/108313527900507320366/posts/ZrgdgLhV3NG).
