Hi again everyone,

I have tried s3fs and there are some problems, can anyone that have tried
s3fs with swift help me solve this ?

The first problem is that s3fs have a format for the password store file
(may be) incompatible for using swift authentication. s3fs password file
have a format like: accessKeyId:secretAccessKey. S3fs use colon symbol to
get ID and secret key, but Swift ID have a format like system:root, so if I
using s3fs password file, it will be: system:root:testpass. S3fs will not
establish an connection to Swift because S3fs can not get ID and key from
above format. :(

I try environment variable for ID and secretkey for solving this, but it is
uncomfortable if I have multiple account. When using environment variable,
I got the second problem. It is when I use s3fs command to mount folder via
https connection, s3fs give me error: "s3fs: curlCode: 60 msg: Peer
certificate cannot be authenticated with known CA certificates". I think
there may be an error in configuration of curl or something else, so I
disable https and use http instead of. Then s3fs give me error:
"Authenticated failed", via log I got "Feb 12 14:34:35 swift s3fs: ###
CURLE_COULDNT_RESOLVE_HOST
Feb 12 14:34:37 swift s3fs: ###retrying..." :( I can not understand why
because I can authenticate and using via Cyberduck successfully.

I'm using fuse 2.8.6, s3fs lastest version and my command is: s3fs myfiles
/mnt -o url=https://192.168.50.110:8080/auth/v1.0

Someone have tried S3fs can give me some help ?
