Access WebDAV shared drives and + directories

diskdrake --dav

This tool[39] is found in the Mageia Control Center, under the Network Sharing + tab, labeled Configure WebDAV shares.

Introduction

WebDAV is a protocol + that allows to mount a web server's directory + locally, so that it appears as a local directory. It is necessary that the + remote machine run a WebDAV server. This is not the aim of this tool to + configure the WebDAV server.

Creating a new entry

The first screen of the tool displays the already configured entries, if any, and a + New button. Use it to create a new entry. Insert + the server URL in the field of the new screen.

Then you get a screen with radio buttons to select some actions. + Continue with the action Mount point by clicking + OK after selecting the radio button, as the + Server is already configured. You can however + correct it, if needed.

The content of the remote directory will be accessible through this + mount point.

In the next step, give your user name and password. If you need some + other options, you can give them in the advanced + screen.

The option Mount allows you to mount + immediately the access.

After you accepted the configuration with the radio button + Done, the first screen is displayed again and your + new mount point is listed. After you choose Quit, + you are asked whether or not to save the modifications in + /etc/fstab. Choose this option if you want that the + remote directory is available at each boot. If your configuration is for + one-time usage, do not save it.


[39] You can start this tool from the command line, by + typing diskdrake --dav as root.
