NFS or betta FS recommendation

I need to mount a few work directories from my work computer on my computer at home. I have SSH access to my machine at work, can I tunnel NFS over SSH and then mount the directories locally? A link to a good guide would be appreciated.

I have a cable connection with 6000/384 kbps (down/up) and my work has a funky radio internet connection with 512/128 kbps. I'll be working with a lot of small files (basically accessing CVS), are there specific FSs that are good for this sort of a scenario?

Thanks!



 
You know, you could try skipping NFS altogether and using FUSE + SSHfs. Also, if by "basically accessing CVS" you mean "only accessing CVS", you can configure CVS to use SSH in place of RSH.

OK, i've been checking up SSHFS and it looks pretty neat. wouldn't performance be better with it?
