Description-en: mount a WebDAV resource as a regular file system
Web Distributed Authoring and Versioning (WebDAV), an extension to the
HTTP-protocol, allows authoring of resources on a remote
web server. davfs2 provides the ability to access such resources like
a typical filesystem, allowing for use by standard applications with no
built-in support for WebDAV.
.
davfs2 is designed to fully integrate into the filesystem semantics of
Unix-like systems (mount, umount, et c.). davfs2 makes
mounting by unprivileged users as easy and secure as possible.
.
davfs2 does extensive caching to make the file system responsive,
to avoid unnecessary network traffic and to prevent data loss, and to cope
for slow or unreliable connections.
.
davfs2 will work with most WebDAV servers needing little or no configuration.
