Webserver User Access

Install brew and sshfs

The Dollar sign stands for MacOSX terminal command prompt. You should type all commands after the Dollar sign.

Replace ag-prof with your group login to the webserver not equivalent with login for Math Department.

The path for /users/local/ should be adapted to your local username.
